***What am I?***

If you noticed me, you guessed I’m a turtle. I love to swim in the pond here at Schiele Museum of Natural History. You can spot me in the pond if you look closely. The pond is located along the Nature Trail.

The Schiele Museum of Natural History is located just a short distance of where we live in Gastonia, North Carolina. If you’re ever in the area, I’d encourage you to stop by & visit the Museum and take a walk around the nature trail.
