That is so cool. I think she might have been interested in the septic tank cover as a marker location ?

When I was a kid, a turtle laid eggs in the ground out back of the cottage near the lake & I made a circle of tape ribbon around that area to keep people away from there. When the eggs hatched the little turtles made their way to the lake, like radar. I don't think the mother actually leads them, they just know. Pretty cool.

wow! now i’m a bit jealous. a turtle might even be more interesting to have in the yard than a moose. nature does have the best „tv channels“ (tv = turtle vision?).
