VALLEY PONDS

Photographs after the tree felling

By Sylvia Woolford

These photos were taken in September 2007 after some tree felling. Does anyone have any photos before the storm of 1987?

Who remembers the terrapins in the ponds? I was with two of my granddaughters when we saw them and the girls' eyes nearly popped out of their heads. The one we saw was huge as a dinner plate, but I couldn't get close enough to get a picture.

Yes we saw five dinner plate sized ones all at the same time, early spring.  They would emerge covered in mud from hibernation, sometimes having been frozen in.  Are you sure they are now gone?
