Red-eared slider Turtles:
The red-eared slider (Trachemys scripta elegans) (Br. Eng Red-eared terrapin) is
a semiaquatic turtle belonging to the family Emydidae. It is a subspecies of pond
slider. It is the most popular pet turtle in the United States and also popular in
the rest of the world. It is native only to the southern United States and northern
Mexico, but has become established in other places because of pet releases
and has become an invasive species in many introduced areas, such as California,
where it outcompetes the native western pond turtle.

A large female Green Sea Turtle (Chelonia mydas). Nassau, BAH. I swam into fire coral getting this shot. Ouch. Like the stinging nettle of the sea. But the burn lasts like poison ivy.
This is a sea turtle cake I made for my daughter's class graduation from the Turtles Class. It was a big hit!
This big guy was crossing the road so we stopped for a photo!! He looked so old with moss growing all over his shell & his paw/foot was all mangled. At first we thought he might be a snapping turtle but I think he's a painted turtle. Hope you all have a great weekend, stay safe!!

Oh, the life of a turtle! Basking in sun or shade... These two happen to be cooling off, and pretty comfortably I would say. Plenty of predators around, however I've seen them on this tree trunk a few times so I think they've found just the right spot.
