So jealous.

 

[CarolM]

Yes. The big eyes are because he thought I was going to let him eat my phone[emoji57]

[CarolM]

So much for becoming the new Dark Lord of CDR. Lol

Nice try.

 

[CarolM]

No, I think not. Tortoises can climb like that.

I am impressed then. Never knew that.

 

[CarolM]

Thank you, Carol! Nice to not-see you back.

Nice to he back. I wil be disappearing and popping in sporadically as I have clients visiting Cape Town for the next week.

 

[CarolM]

These are brilliant. I love the lizard on the bed... and the huge millipede

And I am afraid the plastron shots of the torts just show there is no hope for you whatsoever... you have the bug [emoji23]

I know. The family thought I was mad. [emoji23]

Good morning all. It’s a frosty start here again.

Today I must organise my hayfever meds... it’s time for new supplies. I start very early as I am affected by tree pollens (and finish as everyone else gets going) I could kick off any time in the next 6 weeks, but I prefer to be prepared in advance as early intervention means I get into less of a mess!

Good Afternoon Linda. Have a good one and good luck.

 

[CarolM]

Geez, you do start early! I get a bit of hay fever but I wonder if it’ll be the same in Denmark. Collecting Cat’s ear and dandelion for the torts last year would make it much worse for me. (One of the two aspects of tort parenting that I don’t miss.)

Good Afternoon Lena.
Hope you are having a good one.

Hey, beautiful pics. Thank you for posting it. The landscape is very different there ? Sometimes dry and sometimes green, is it ?
The torts are good looking. They live wild there ? Do you know what specie they are ? The millipede is a little bit scary and the lizards are cute !
Btw: Your hand and foot are beautiful too !

EDIT: I found the tortoise: It is an Angulate Tortoise

Whahaha. Thank re the compliment on my hand and foot. This was out near citrusdal area. At the moment depending on where direction you go in, it is either green or brown

 

[CarolM]

& From which kind does tort belong?

The torti are South African tortoises. They are wild and belong to the Bowsprit or Chersina Angulata tortoise groups.
