It's slow, long run day of Reptiles in the Park!
While I have similarly encountered few snakes on the same day in the park before, today's snakes were rather openly viewed near to me. I managed to get good footages of them.
They were also pretty chill. One luminous green, and the other black.

One reptile however stood out.
Just as I was running out of the nature park and entering the urban section of the park, I spotted a turtle on tarmac.

Was a pet released in a wrong place? Or has it crawled out from it's usual spot in the park? After all, I have seen one or two such turtles in the forest of the park before - and once, witnessed a female trying to dig ground near the footpath, presumably to lay eggs.
It tried to move away from me as I approached it. Hopefully it genuinely belongs here as I observed some muddy marks on its shell.
I wished it luck and jogged off to continue with the rest of the few kilometres back to home ground.
