We Spotted an Eastern Spotted Turtle, Jr Version

We saw this baby turtle, and we caught it on camera!  This little guy in an Eastern Spotted Turtle.  This little guy will grow to about 5 inches.  They live on the Eastern side of the United States, hence their name.  Their main characteristics are their spots, which are located on the top of their shells.  The spotted turtles usually hang out in the shallow water.  These fellas will eat anything from worms and snails, to crickets and aquatic vegetables.
