Herpetofauna: One Life's List

Emydoidea blandingi
Blanding's Turtle

Waukesha Co., Wisconsin
September 14, 2009

A buddy spotted this turtle swimming in a small lake and went it and got it (thanks Bryan!).  My first good look at a blandingi - up to this point, I had only seen several heads sticking out of the water at a distance.
