Red-eared slider at Hagerman (Jun 2018)

There are always turtles out sunning on rocks and logs when we visit Hagerman National Wildlife Refuge. Unlike the birds, the turtles are much less forgiving of gawkers. They usually slip into the water the moment I see them.

On my last trip to Hagerman, however, a large red-eared slider hung out long enough for me to take a nice photo. I love how mossy its shell is! And if you zoom in super-close, this turtle has an awesome smirk on its face.
