I posted a picture on the Overview section of one of the turtles in the grass in front of Coral Gardens. Does anybody know what kind of turtle (logerhead??) it might be?

FYI - I took the picture with a Kodak disposable underwater camera. The sunlight was just perfect when I took the picture just below the surface. The camera even went thru the x-ray machine at security at the Provo airport.

Looks to be a loggerhead. Green and loggerheads can be easily confused but the reddish color indicates it is a loggerhead.
