May, June and July are the months the Diamondback Terrapin Turtle comes ashore from the Delaware Bay to lay their eggs in the marshlands that are around our county. You can find turtles in Reed's Beach, Stone Harbor, Benny's Landing Rd and many other areas. Many turtles are killed each year by drivers who don't see them as they cross the roads to the areas they lay their eggs. Early in June I was in Reed's Beach where I was able to "help" 2 turtles to cross the road safely. That's where my turtle pictures were taken though I have also seen many turtles at the end of Benny's Landing Rd.
