My neighbor found a red ear in her yard under a pile of leaves.
Most likely using it for insulation. They're still coming out the water to lay eggs and get caught in the cold at night.
People keep calling it a box turtle for some odd reason after I told them what it is.
Just an important reminder to always know what species of turtle, tort, snake etc your dealing with so you can properly know how to relocate or care for it.
I saw this once when someone threw a tort into a lake.
