In Gunderson Pond on the Western Minnesota Steam Thresher's Reunion grounds, there can be found quite a number of turtles. I captured these 3 on one of the logs. I am pretty sure that these are Painted Turtles. They are the most widespread native turtle of North America.
Nice catch Shelly
ReplyDeleteThe two on each end are definitely painted turtles, the one in the centre I think is too as I see a hint of red by left "shoulder". At first I thought it might be a map turtle.
Thank you Jim. Will have to look up Map Turtle.
