Well from video it looks like she is just crawling towards the wall and she isnt making digging motions with her legs. Someone has a good video of there turtle digging into wood to show what it looks like. I will try to find link.

My turtle does that with the walls and in the corners. They probably think that if they push hard enough, the wall will move out of their way. hehe:)

I agree with the others....That is not digging behavior.
