A really nice capture of these wonderful beings. I do like turtles (not snappers, of course) and I am intriqued by the lines on the log they are crossing. I wonder how they got there.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

Anyone who owns a pond is not fond of turtles. At least you captured these nicely. Good work.
