Description
A turtle riding an alligator was my first thought when arriving upon this scene. But this Texas River Cooter is just resting on a log shaped like an alligator head in the clear water of the Frio River in Garner State Park, Texas.
The Texas River Cooter (Pseudemys texana) is a species of freshwater turtle endemic to the U.S. state of Texas. It is found in the river basins of the Brazos, San Bernard, Colorado, Guadalupe, San Antonio, Nueces, and their tributaries.
Garner State Park is located in the community of Concan, Uvalde County, in the Texas Hill Country.
