Bobbing Head Turtle



We discovered this turtle, we think made from a coconut, while visiting Cape Hatteras, North Carolina.


We were lucky to stay right on the ocean where the sea turtles nest! So, this turtle souvenir reminds us of that very special time, which was also a CMCS (Cape May County Songwriters) songwriter retreat. The members shared 65 original songs that weekend!


For another bobblehead turtle, SCROLL DOWN…

Looseneck Biker Turtle



This little turtle nods along while we ride our motorcycle!


We love watching for wild turtles crossing the roads while on our motorcycle, because it is much easier then to stop and help turtles cross the roads.


For a while, we sold many “looseneck” bobbing head turtles at Turtlesinger Shows.

Tiny Bobblehead Turtle



This adorable tiny bobblehead turtle is just a little over an inch high.


In real life, baby mud turtles—although they look very different--are actually about this size!


To see a photo of a baby mud turtle, check out the 2022 Turtlesinger Calendar cover soon! It will be featured here on our website before long.

Big-headed Turtle



Did you know there really is a live turtle called a Big-headed turtle? It is found in Southeast Asia and Southern China.


Snapping turtles also have disproportionately large heads compared to their body size and compared to many other turtles.


Finally, speaking of National Bobblehead Day, to see a real, live turtle bobbing its head, SCROLL DOWN…

Bobbing and Courting



Many tortoises and turtles use head movements as a sign of recognition and in courtship. Our own tortoise, Big Black Bart, bobs his head from side to side whenever he approaches Gracie!


Watch the gopher tortoise on the right bob its head at the gopher tortoise in the burrow on the left at the Barefoot Park Beach Preserve in Naples, Florida. We were lucky to be able to study them for a few days there and on Sanibel Island.


Thanks so much for reading, and for celebrating Bobblehead Day with us in a totally turtle way!
