Ha! What a cool subject...
There is way too much distraction here--the turtles are the main attraction and they should fill as much of the frame as possible--a crop would help, although at f/6.3 looks like your POF was behind the subject here.

I agree with he clutter, so I cropped it and I do see how the focus appears to be off the main subject,but what I wonder is how do you take the time to get everything perfect when you want to get the shot before the all get spooked and disappear?
I also found another turtle in the clutter!
Thanks for the feedback. Can this cropped one go in as my entry or is the first one there for good? BJ

BJ,
I like the size of the turtles best in the repost, though I might have left more space in front of the turtle on the right side of the frame. I might also have increased the ISO to get a higher shutter speed and perhaps a bit more sharpness throughout.
I like the diagonal line created by the log & turtles.
