aisforamyHere are some pictures of the turtles I took with my new camera!
The red eared slider in the water is Godzilla, and the one I am holding is Torkle. They were both the same size when we first got them, but Torkel (a River Cooter) is noticeably larger, now. We may eventually have to separate them, but for now they are happy together.
Aren't they adorable? The pics of them in the water are a little fuzzy because their "tank" is a sheer plastic, not glass. The water isn't really murky at all. They are going to need a larger tank soon, but that also means a better heater, and a more powerful filter and whatnot, and I want to do my homework on that, first.
In other news, my sons are both back at school and we are all getting over the crud we had. I went to the zoo with the first graders today as a chaperon for their field trip, and was in charge of five kids - it was a lot of fun! I had to hurry back to the school to do two Art Masterpiece presentations for the third grade. I showed Flowers and Pears by Paul Cezanne to one class, and Boys in a Pasture by Winslow Homer to the other.
I must say - I don't know how much the kids are learning from these presentations, but I am learning loads! I really love it!
That's all for now!
