Wild Terrapins (or Turtles)

These are some of the wild Terrapins (or possibly Turtles) which can often be seen sunning themselves on fallen branches in the water at Carr Mill Dam, St Helens, Merseyside. It is thought that they originally came to be there because somebody kept them as pets then set them free into the lake. They seem to be doing quite well as they have been there for a long time. Taken from the arches over the top end of the lake so a reasonable crop.
