Caught these guys lounging at the lake.
The more sludge the better. This red eared slider feels safer in the muck.
This painted turtle crawled his way up out of the muck for some sunrays.
This was when he noticed i was hanging around and decided to start diving under.
I caught this itty bitty painted turtle sunning on a tiny piece of wood. Hopefully it can steer clear of the great blue herons that like to eat them for snacks.
Here's a bonus water scorpion floating like a pool toy. Happy #turtlethursday
