Tortoise
Without my tortoises, my terrace would be incredible boring. They always come close to see whether you bring some food for them, run after the cats and make funny noises when jumping on their favorite wooden root.
In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Close Up.”
Stunning patterns in his shell. How wonderful to have tortoises!!

my three tortoises are absolutely active at the moment – they are they only ones who truly enjoyed the current heat wave ๐

OMG that’s so cute. I giggled when I read that about Dotty!! It is illegal to keep them in Queensland, but I always wanted one!

I’m still trying to make a group photo featuring them all – but this will be hard work ๐

Oh yes, that would require a lot of effort! Maybe the best is to feature them individually! ๐

Just imagined them sitting all next to each other – i would only have a millisecond to take one shot – which most likely would be blurry โบ
