Could not get close enough to tell what kind of turtle this was. I assume it’s a red eared slider or a false map turtle. It was also kicking its back legs and didn’t retreat into the water when it saw me as they usually do. I wondered if it was a female laying eggs.

It was initally positioned over what seemed to be an egg case on the other side of the leaf. I disturbed it before realizing what it was.
