High of 74 degrees Fahrenheit

Low of 53 degrees Fahrenheit

66 degrees Fahrenheit at capture

On a sunny morning, the wind picked up as had become a trend this season, and stifled a lot of surface activity in the wetlands I searched. On my way to a park along the Mississippi River, I spotted this hatchling slider crossing the road and took it to the beach of the river for release. Upon arrival a father asked if I would show his children the turtle, and I agreed after I was done with pictures. The turtle was shown as an educational opportunity after pictures and I left, as the beach I intended to investigate was flooded.
