I happened to look up about a week ago across my pond while I was walking to my snake building, and I saw something that was very bright. Upon further inspection, it looked like neon yellow on a log, and the reflection on the water looked like an image of the sun. Monica walked out on the dock to get a better look, and it slid in the water. The next day, it was back on the log, and an attempt to creep up on it resulted it in sliding in the water again. Later that day, I decided to try a shot (without a zoom lens, I don't have one) and this is the closest I could get before he slid in the water. My pond has since filled from the rain, and that log is underwater now, but I have seen it sun bathing on the opposite shore. I tried to walk around the pond, but he keeps dissapearing into the water when I get about 100 feet away. Hopefully soon, I will have enough time and stealth to get a better pic, but for now this is all I could get. I told Monica that it doesn't let me get close, and that is how a Yellew turtle (Albino) has lived long enough to get to adult size. That ghuy is about 8 inches long. Here is the pic
