Eastern Box Turtle
It seems these were all over the roads of River Ridge this spring. I saw this one on a walk up Pioneer Trail in June. I learned our dog, Rudy, likes to step on them with his paw them so I have to keep him away to shoot turtle pics. Apparently, this is a male as he has red eyes (click on photo for close up view).
See the website listing ("WV Turtles" under Helpful Links in sidebar) the 13 turtle species of WV; most including the respective photos for easy identification.
