Spent the first part of my day supervising Chilli the red-eared slider outside for hours as she nested and FINALLY laid her eggs She's been restless for over a week. I'm so happy she can finally relax #RedEaredSlider #TurtleNesting #TurtleCare #PetTurtle #Reptile

Algae and duckweed covered the water's surface- this little painted turtle was also covered. Like a little stealth sub. 🐢 #photography #wildlife #nature #wildlifephotography #naturephotography #turtle #paintedturtle #tamron #sony

A red-eared slider turtle, partially hidden and hard to spot, shares a aquarium with a colorful guppy colony. The tank is viewed through the glass with a streaming camera and filter equipment mounted in the foreground, and a terracotta pot sits on the tank floor.

I was cleaning some of the algae and moss out of my pond's bog filter when my hand brushed against something under the algae. It's a baby snapping turtle! 😆 Now that's a first! I have seen them around my yard before but never hanging out in my pond. #turtle #reptile #wildlife #Wisconsin #garden

No monkey business going on here, just enjoying the sunshine together. On top, a pond slider (Trachemys scripta). Below, a painted turtle (Chrysemys picta). Photo taken at the Rio Grande Nature Center, Albuquerque, on September 16, 2026. #nature #naturephotography #turtles

Two turtles on a log in a pond. One has climbed partly onto the back of the other, not that the other one minds. Instead, they both seem to be in a state of bliss as they soak in the warmth of the un. Their eyes are mostly closed. Their jaws are closed and to human eyes, they're smiling. Both have green upper carapaces, and both have green heads and necks with yellow stripes. The upper turtle has a small red patch behind the eye, and the lower part of the carapace is more yellow than green. The lower turtle has no red patch, but the lower part of the carapace is more red than green. Also, the lower turtle has some red on its legs. The lower turtle has extended a couple of legs to serve as collectors of solar heat.
