Macquarie Turtle (Emydura macquarii). Lake Weeroona, Bendigo, Victoria. Thanks Ninox for the correct ID.
Me and my family were at a gas, in Bulgaria. I started to clean the crumbs from the car, and when I opened the door, I saw this turtle. :-)
This was a turtle that a friend rescued from the desert. She is doing very well. In fact she is even well enough to smile!
Montage of two turtle encounters;
1st a little Hawksbill Turtle, who was non-plussed by my presence.
And 2nd, a larger Green Turtle who was disturbed from her resting place by the others in the group - and made a break for it (with 2 remoras in tow).
Nice to see plenty of turtles in & around Kuredu.

The photo after this one is the entire turtle. This is a close up of the Red-Eared Water Turtle tucked in its shell while looking out at me.
