This turtle was probably 20 yards from the bank and seemingly resting on top of the water. Obviously, something was holding him up and it wasn't a lily pad, but I never could figure out what it was. When I came back later, he had managed to turn around and face away from shore.

He almost appears to be surfing...without the waves, of course! Interesting that you can't see what is holding him up! Very nice clear shots!
Sweet! It does look like he's almost floating, or hovering magically...perhaps there's a rock, just under the surface of the water..?
interesting turtle ... do you also have tortoises?
I love a good mystery! :)
'dirty dancing' is all i could think of. ugh! :) no one puts baby in a corner.
Hahaha! LOVE this!

Heh heh. That turtle had himself a fine perch of some kind. I like his colors and his snooty face.
Hmmm....makes for a good photo!
How cool! What great shots!
Nice.
Turtles have amazing balance for something that looks rather cumbersome!
Now that's interesing. Maybe a beaver buddy was swimming under him? Great photos.
So cute!
It's a mystery you will now have to solve Brian... no help from any of us lol.
And we were all led to believe that only Jesus walked on water.... now we know Norris the turtle can aswell.
Cheers for sharing Brian.

I LOVE turtles, do you have them living near you Brian? The photos are awesome, and who would have thought that turtles could actually walk on water? ;-)
Cheers.
Fun shot! Looks like he's walking on the water to me!
was the water just that shallow, maybe? that's odd that you wasn't able to see a tree trunk or anything in the water... cool shots, at any rate! he's one handsome dude! heheheee =)
Suspended animation?? Lol... great shots Brian!
Aw, what fun photos! I love turtles and clearly this is an especially talented one :-)

Cool shots Brian! It has to be on top of a rock, maybe one that is just under the surface of the water, otherwise it's a mystery!
