Smooth Turtle Leech (Placobdella parasitica)Observer
kalamurphykingDescription
White Rock lake, creek between the lower spillway steps and the lower spillway proper
I had no idea there was a leech on the turtle until I processed the photo. A new species for me discovered purely by accident. Can you see it on the edge of the turtle's shell?
