Eastern Snake-necked Turtle (1/4)

Testudines: Chelidae

Chelodina longicollis  

I came across this Eastern Snake-necked Turtle on a gravel road and moved it out of the path of a large tractor approaching from the opposite direction.

The turtle may be going walkabout to find a new home or, if this is a female, it may be looking for a suitable site to lay eggs.
