Best of Mike #332

This would be either a Hawksbill or Green Sea Turtle. I struggle with the identification unless I can see the front of the face or the top of the head between their eyes.... neither of which is visible in the pixtures that I took of this guy.

But I am leaning towards the Hawksbill because of the brown coloring of the shell and what appear to be overlapping shell plates.

Hawksbills are a medium sized turtle meaning they can grow to between 2 and 3 1/2 feet in length and weigh between 95 and 165 lbs.

Whichever species that this one is.... it is on it's way to the surface for a breath.
