Lifer! I helped it head to the water (where it was walking towards but was still a trek away). Large female, I assume it came back from nesting. Worcester County, MA.
Albino and typical wild type compared
Two males fought for control of my pool deck. The greener one ended up winning when it successfully shoved the other off the edge. Here's a short video of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDKqu1oqkjY

Entro a mi casa, la verdad desconozco de donde pudo haber salido, nose mucho de tortugas y quisiera saber que tipo es y sus cuidados
Almost certainly an escaped/released pet. Differentiated from a red-footed tortoise because of the gular scutes being even with the carapace, the inconspicuous inguinal scute, and the elongated prefrontal scales.
Eating a fish that an osprey dropped in the driveway
Dead turtle, crushed by a car. Near the Passion Puddle.
Approx. carapace size : 4 inches
Seen and photographed crossing the 1777 Trail by my friend about a 1/4 mile up from the reservoir at Doodletown Rd.
Found in a shallow floodplain, less than 4” deep.
Road kill on pleasant plains rd
Seen along the bank of the Delaware River. At first I thought is was a slider until I got home and worked on the photo. Never seen one sunning before. Rare to see them doing this especially in a big river like this.
