I am sad to say that the last box turtle that visited our pond for a
swim left his shell and bones in the pond. We found them a while
later. I hope yours hase had better luck exiting the pond!

We get the occasional water turtle from the local lakes. I think they
must be able to detect water bodies by smell. No way wandering would
get them to our pond, or to our acre pond in the numbers that actually
do come. Has anyone an idea about how turtles find water to visit?
