The save turtle Project in Holiday Island Resort - this picture was taken on 16th October 2007. In my recent visit to the resort the turtles were grown big, I dont know where I save those pictures and as soon as I get the location it would be here.... it took me months even to find this picture

Just a photo of a female wood turtle looking for a suitable nesting site on a sandy bank.

Male painted turtles (Chrysemys picta) have extremely long front claws as shown here, which are used during courtship. Females have short claws but are larger in overall size. Courting takes place in the water: the male moves backwards facing the female while waving the long claws in a trembling motion along the sides of her head and neck. Mating takes place if the female is receptive to the male's display. The painted turtle is a common species in many areas of the US.

Mokala National Park, South Africa.

I went to work this morning with big plans -- it's Tuesday -- after work every other Tuesday I pick up my nieces and we hang out -- get dinner - whatever -- so I decided I'd be leaving work on time.

Well, Breezy called around 3:30 to tell me plans changed and they wouldn't be able to come with me today.

After working a 12 hour shift, I decided I wasn't going to let my play day be all work -- so I grabbed my camera and went to a little park near my house. I guess I got there too late to see the ducks as there were none in site. But I did feed bread to the turtles and get some photos of the lone white ibis that seems to have taken up residence there. (I feel sorry for him he's always alone)

Shukkeien is a small stroll garden, worth an hour of your time in Hiroshima. Here is one of its turtles. Interestingly, Shukkeien means "shrunken scenery garden", so called because the park displays famous Chinese scenery in miniaturized form with a pond, small islands, bridges and various plants.

This was taken at the Portland Oregon Zoo....so many photos...so little time!
