yes, she was ducking in and hissing and not coming out of her shell at the smallest shadow.
She hasn't done that for years.

I heard on the radio the other day that scientists have discovered that tortoises have a '3rd eye' which is why they react to shadows above them. It's like a light sensitive patch on the top of their heads they believe.
