As you can see Village Creek is nowhere near flash flood mode, though I could tell via the fresh collection of litter behind the dam bridge that yesterday's rain had raised the creek level for awhile.
Prior to getting to the location you see above I tried to take video of the easily spooked Village Creek turtle tribe. I had to abort that attempt because the turtles jumped off their home log before I focused on them.
Later I made a second attempt to video the turtle tribe. This time they were not easily spooked. In fact, I had to resort to somewhat desperate measures to get them off the log, which you can see, and hear, via the video below....

Are turtles good swimmers? It looks like their was enough current there to wash them down to the Trinity.
Anonymous, I am sure the turtle tribe is grateful for your concern. I can assure you they are excellent swimmers and that within a minute or two of me leaving they'd assumed their position on their sun basking lounge log.
