Grungy little terrapin prints + I guess I sign my work now. Still haven’t figured out how that looks or how I feel about it.

A female Painted Turtle is laying eggs in a hole she has dug not far from Ray Brook, Essex County, NY (Adirondack Mountains). Painted Turtles are small to medium-sized turtles. Adults are about four to ten inches long. The carapace (the top shell) is oval. It is olive to black and relatively smooth, with yellow and red borders. The plastron (lower shell) is yellow. The skin is dark with reddish-orange and yellow stripes on the neck, legs, and tail. This turtle has crawled up from the water and has prepared a nest in an open area not far from the water's edge. Nesting in northern populations of Painted Turtles takes place during June and July. The female leaves her pond or stream in search of an appropriate nesting site. Painted Turtle females usually dig their nests in loamy or sandy soil in open area with a southern exposure, often fairly near the water's edge. They usually build their nests in late afternoon or early evening. They dig their nests entirely with their hind feet and lay one to 23 eggs. The eggs are elliptical and white or cream in color with a slightly pitted surface. Females generally lay two clutches per year. For northern populations, the mean clutch size is larger, but these turtles tend to produce fewer clutches annually.
