In Sochi, Russia, a cluster of at least six turtles bask on vegetation within a green-tinted pond. The turtles, varying in size, are piled on top of each other near the water's edge. Tall green reeds and grasses surround them, with a partially submerged log visible on the left side of the frame. The pond's surface is murky, reflecting the surrounding vegetation.

Families gather to watch turtles basking
