turtle

Chicory blooms the brightest in the morning, and it surrounds this turtle crossing sign at the Main Ring Road entrance at CZero.

Spiny softshell

Throwback Thursday: This spiny softshell turtle, spotted near Feynman Computing Center last summer, is about 20 inches long.

Last week this softshell turtle—roughly 12 inches wide—slowly made its way across Road C to the north side of Bulrush Pond, located northwest of the Industrial Building Complex. It did so with help from Security Lieutenant Donna Iraci and Liliana Rivera, who directed vehicles to go around it as they came down Road C.
