Turtles are laying eggs now. Just like birds. OK, so not exactly like birds. To begin with many birds, robins and mourning doves and red-winged blackbirds and many others built nests and laid eggs as much as two months ago. Turtles are just now laying their eggs.
We saw a snapping turtle laying in our pasture a few days ago. We didn’t actually see that snapper’s eggs. We saw this big turtle with its rear in the ground, and we knew it was a female and she was laying. We knew when she finished she’d cover her eggs with dirt. We could have waited and dug the eggs up after that turtle had covered them and left, but we didn’t. A raccoon or an opossum might, however.
Birds, most birds, sit on their eggs, incubate them, then feed the nestlings after they hatch. Turtle eggs are incubated by the warmth of the earth, which is why they aren’t laid earlier. Turtles wait until the ground is warm, until summer, and then they lay their eggs. When the eggs hatch, the little turtles dig their way out and are on their own.
