Finally the weather warmed enough to let her outdoors for nesting.
Her urge to nest was apparent last month, but this year her winter home proved unacceptable for nesting.
She began her nest at about 2pm, she was not finished until 8pm. Luckily the temperature did not drop much after dark. 4 ova were deposited.
Her last clutch was in November 2009. I got her as a small import in 2002, I guess she is about 11 years old.
Note the cactus fibers in her mouth, she had a prenesting snack.
