Reply to Strange question but where in this area have people seen wild turtles? by ProximaCentauriB15
I've seen tortoises on the Richmond Slave Trail! Though I'm guessing they inhabit most any riverside trail in RVA.
The pond at the Japanese Garden in Maymont is teaming with them, as is the canal along the Northbank Trail behind the Japanese Garden.
In the past from about late March to mid April babies start hatching around Swan and Byrd Lake. My daughter loves seeing all the silver dollar sized babies resting in the shallows along the banks.
Happy turtle hunting :)

What gear did you use to capture this photo? Not a super easy shot to get so sharp. Thanks for sharing!
