TORTOISES!!!

They're so darn cute.

This week I volunteered to feed the crew of tortoises that live on campus.

They LOVE watermelon!

and they love hibiscus flowers, which we pick from the trees in their enclosure

Look at that mouth!!!

These cuties made me get out of bed an extra hour early every day this week to feed them. Good thing they're so cute!

Group picture, poor quality, sorry.

And then, today, one decided to try to escape, but ended up falling on his back. He needed rescuing, but not before I got a picture!

The others soon swarmed to have a laugh too (or so I assume)

"Do I have any food on my face???" Just a little Mr. Tortoise, just a little.
