A Muskrat and a Painted Turtle.

Nice shot! I'm surprised the muskrat tolerates the turtle, but I sure like the shot. Just for clarity, that's most probably a Red Eared Turtle rather than a Painted Turtle. Anyway catching them together is pretty cool!

Great catch Regis. It does look like the Muskrat is not too pleased to share his reed with this hard shelled interloper.

Good catch Regis. In my eyes that is most unusual and you were there to capture the moment!
