While driving home from work the "long way" I encountered this turtle on South Rockwell Avenue, a two-lane country road in this area northwest of the airport. It didn't look like a box turtle, so I identify it as a red-eared slider, which is probably the most common turtle in Oklahoma. I saw him (her?) safely to the other side of the road.

Describe what happened. Example
"Mother Blanding had made her nest between the goldenrod and bluestem outside my window late last June.
By chance we were sitting on the porch when we noticed little blandings in the same location we had seen the mother take 2 months earlier."
