Turtle eggs

P1050557_0042

This painted turtle created a place to lay her eggs right in front of our cabin at Irene Lake 

I suspect there is a gaggle, a flock, a herd, a murder, a swarm, a litter, a brood or whatever they call a group of turtles, swimming around the area. 

OK I looked it up, the collective nouns for a group of turtles is a nest, a bale or a dole.
