Above are pics of a good sized turtle. He let me get closer than I thought he would because he had a prime sunning location.  He may be a red-bellied turtle.  He's taking advantage of the warm sunshine today!

Can't figure out how they do this!!  Here's a turtle that's sticking up out of the water, part of his shell in the air.  He somehow managed to climb up onto a tree branch that's sticking out of the water.  Right after I got the second picture he disappeared into the water.  You blink and they're gone!
