Two Turtle species observed today: Painted Turtles basking in the sun, and a good-sized Snapping Turtle slowly moving along the bottom of a shallow stream.

A Yellow-Bellied Slider suns in a pond, somewhat concerned about a piece of snakeskin floating nearby. Do you get a prehistoric vibe? And how about that yellow coloring?

From the pond at Audubon's Newhall Preserve on Hilton Head Island, SC, USA. More about the Preserve here: mindly.social/@joewynne/110441

Check back on Saturday to see the snake associated with the piece of skin. If you dare.

Good morning ๐ŸŒž๐ŸŒ„ happy Tuesday! It's shaping up to be a nice day in St. Louis, work is slow and the weather is pleasant. How's everyone doing today? I'm missing my buddy but optimistic about the future, things just might work out.๐Ÿคž

Have a great day and do something fun if the chance arises! Here's some baby turtle ๐Ÿข pics to start the day, or finish if you're a friend on the other side of the world. ๐ŸŒŽ

I'm pretty sure the painted turtles are up to something if they even roped one of the senior snappers into their gathering...

Big turtle/little turtle

Spring is arriving in full force, and there's turtles soaking up the already intense sun everywhere. This is one of the bigger snappers hereabouts with a mid-size Painted Turtle.

Apparently some snappers didn't get the memo ( dresden.network/@dandelion/110 ) and emerged only today. Surprisingly, they seem to bury themselves only a few inches into the creek bed, relying on the running water to prevent freezing (dry ground remains usually frozen solid around here for several months).

Happy
A couple of the hardest working turtles there are...
These two have been supporting the Sagrada Familia for ages.

I couldn't find a shot that shows the column that the turtles are supporting on their back (probably because that area is always packed with people).
