Darwin's been enjoying this recent run of hot weather.
His outside enclosure is 4x4, and he loves exploring and nibbling his way around.
His hibiscus plants have been producing flowers like crazy... he's been eating a couple every day.
Everyday before I put him out, I yank a few handfuls of green from a raised bed devoted to tortoise-friendly greens.
After exploring the enclosure he disappears... not into the little shelter I've setup, which scared me at first, as I thought he'd escaped.
He likes to tunnel under the fresh greens, eating his way in and then settling in for a nap under the warm and moist pile.
I think he'll miss his summer field trips when the warm days come to an end.
