Wood Turtle for Saturday Critters
Tthis is turtle season in my area. Daily I see Painted turtles and I am waiting to see the big Snapping turtles laying their eggs. Yesterday I saw a turtle species that I seldom see, a Wood Turtle! I think it had been in the process of digging a location to lay its eggs as the soil was disturbed there as I came along. the bright red on its legs and neck signified to me that it was a Wood Turtle
Also a slight sideways glimpse of its under shell showed me its yellow coloration which has black blotches on it.
