Blanding's turtle (Emydoidea blandingii)

On a walk along the K&P trail in Lanark County with a friend, we saw two of these turtles, this big one and a very small one. The species is considered threatened in Ontario, under the Endangered Species Act.

A very handsome turtle. I haven't seen one of these. It reminds me of the box turtles but I think they may be different genuses. I will have to look it up! Great that you found two of them.
