a still log a stiller turtle— both listening to the hush of water’s time, where nothing needs to move to arrive.

Looks like this🐢’s chosen a mighty steep log to climb! Daring? Heading to a custom-built platform w/a pleasant lake-view? Or is she/he trying to escape a predator? As if there are alligators there🙄…then again, there are snakes. Intriguing📸: so unCommon! ❤️the symmetry w/that reflection!👏

Thank you 😊. It was a little one. About 3 and a half inches.

No, you’re kidding, right? But IK you’re not - that’s incredible! I’d never have guessed! How adorable!🥰🐢Is this a baby or is this its full-grown size? Seriously, I’d never have guessed! That makes your photo quite a remarkable optical illusion! 😃

A baby would be a little larger than a inch. A full grown male can get to 6.25 inches a female can get to 10.5 inches.

Thank you 😊
