It’s about a week since I posted some photos of the local terrapins<\/a>, and another sunny day brought three of them out into the open. Two of them are yellow-bellied sliders, but this first one is a different species (though I’ve no idea what). It’s larger than the other ones, and seemed to have broader rear legs\/feet.<\/p>\n

The yellow-bellieds stayed in the water most of the time, but one of them kept close to the shore (obviously tempted by the warm weather). Much as I don’t like seeing them in the pond for ecological reasons (they are voracious predators), they do make good photographic subjects especially when they stay close to the surface.<\/p>\n
