A northern map turtle (Graptemys geographica) on a log in the middle of a pond facing the left of frame with their head raised proudly to show us the yellow map-like lines on their head and neck. Their beak is a noticeable contrasting white and their shell is covered in mud and algae.

Meet the Ouachita Map Turtle—nature’s living map.
Serrated shell. Racing stripes. Coolest name in the turtle game. www.cernunnosfoundation.com/nature-pictu...
Native to America’s great rivers, but rarely seen.
Time to give this river king some love.

Front view of my turtle. Eyes forward, tiny little nose holes present, and an attitude you can sense for miles.
Please take my only good picture of Shelley the Destroyer
