Wonderful capture, Derek. I have never ever seen such a turtle (but then don't get to hang out in the swamp too much). Interesting that his throat blends with the bg. #1206918

A Beauty. Looks as healthy as any I've ever seen.

Funny how they are the last to hibernate and first to wake.

Happy Shooting
