Snapping turtle (Chelydra serpentina)

Fletcher Wildlife Garden

This small snapping turtle was just below the bridge over the pond, and it was slowly trying to make its way toward the pond. As you can see, it is covered in that muddy sludge it had to travel through.

It looks as if it just emerged from hibernation. Vote.
