Yesterday we went to the Stony Brook Millstone Watershed Association’s Buttinger Nature Center.

As always, the highlights were the turtles and Mrs. Linden holding a SNAKE!

We were lucky to see the mud turtle with an egg! We watched her carry it around her tank, then EAT it!

Check out their website, it’s a WONDERFUL place.
