The turtle rose to the surface of a brook. I took out my camera. He noticed me and submerged.
I retreated a step. He appeared again. This time he swam around. I got my photo, albeit with the edge of a bridge in the composition.
The turtle had caught my attention while I strolled along a back road. It's flanked by woods and swamps. Wildlife is abundant. Strolling through there relaxes my mind like nothing else.
Sometimes I walk in parks with ball fields. Those settings don't compare in satisfaction to the road with wetlands alongside it.
Here's what a study discovered about visiting outdoor settings: The greater the natural diversity, the greater a visitor's sense of well being.
