Seven painted turtles on a log. Several are facing away from the camera and a few are looking to the right. The log cuts across the photo diagonally. Their reflections can be seen in the water that the log is in. There are a couple small branches hanging down from above them, one at the far left and one just right of center. The one at the left is also reflected in the water.

A painted turtle out of the water. It is standing on a pile of small rocks. The turtle is mostly a dull green on the top of its shell, with red edging and red on the lines of its shell. Its head is sticking out of the shell and is also a dull green, with some light green stripes on the neck. The legs are black with red dots on top and a red stripe on the side. Red can also be seen around the edge of the bottom shell.

I was a bit late this morning because a feeling made me take another route and I ended up saving this little dude who was crossing a busy road. Painted Turtle (Chrysemys picta).
