Cooter Turtle closeup

I took this closeup picture of what I have tentatively identified as a Cooter Turtle that was in the driveway of the Circle B Bar Reserve on December 4 of 2014. I laid down in the roadway and placed my camera on the ground for a very steady picture. Of course I first made sure that no cars were coming. It was a cool day and I believe that the turtle had crawled out there to take advantage of both the sun and the sun warmed asphult roadway. When I was done taking this wildlife picture I very carefully picked up the turtle and removed it from the roadway by several feet to help keep it hopefully safe.
