Turtle ID

[Wetlander]

Have had a turtle or two around most summers, but I was hoping it was the native Painted Turtle. With my scope, I can finally get a look. Still can't quite tell, but there seems to be a bit of a red smudge on head. So it's probably an invasive Red-eared Slider.

Finally, a little time to sit and catch up on the forum! Ill start from the bottom and work up.

Im not very good with turtles but the pattern on the shell there looks lilke a Red-eared Slider I agree.

Keep an eye though, no reason not to run into a Painted Turtle!
