This photo is definitely "Squad Goals" as Hannah Dion-Kirschner pointed out when she submitted this image to our 2022 Photo Contest. Occasionally turtles do climb on eachother, searching for a good spot to warm up in the sun. Hannah Dion-Kirschner #TurtleTuesday #Caltech

These two turtles have climbed up on some smaller rocks in the #Caltech turtle pond to catch some sun. Precariously balanced, the turtles will stretch out their legs to try to maximize their sun exposure! Image submitted by Huiting Huang. #TurtleTuesday

Another turtle photo for #TurtleTuesday! The turtles often have their back legs stretched out backwards, as seen in the image, to absorb as much sun as possible. Submitted by "TheRealFortniteGamer".
