Had some luck on a late afternoon walk on Cape Cod today (22 September 2025). We crossed paths with a couple of beautiful Northern Diamondback Terrapin (Malaclemys terrapin) hatchlings.
I'm running out of time tonight, but I couldn't resist sharing a couple of photos. These are small turtles, with shell lengths of only ~3 cm long.
Curious? You can learn more about these salt marsh turtles here.
