Obviously this was taken in the summer, but I was thinking about turtles earlier; what do turtles do under the ice in the winter for fun? Do they sleep all day? Raccoons & Possums are still in my trash every night and the Mallards, Wood Ducks, Nuthatches & Shovelers left a while ago — so what are the turtles & bees up to?

I could check with Wikipedia, but I’m feelin’ lazy and sort of like the image of the turtles playing cards and telling fish stories.
