We came across one of these small amphibious reptiles this week while we both were out taking a stroll on the dam that forms Hilton Pond. For a photo essay about mud turtles, please visit the 15-21 May 2005 installment of "This Week at Hilton Pond" at <<http://www.hiltonpond.org/ThisWeek050515.html>> As always we include a tally of all birds banded, plus a list of interesting recaptures and a few miscellaneous nature notes.
