But it's still cold enough ??

Well at least I now know Thank you- although I thought snowballs lasted till spring. I guess they don't make them like they used to.

Ha Ha Patty Meet Scooter A10 year old Sonoran. They last a good long time! Well they burrow underground As much 15 feet. I always say being under a rock not such bad thing Plus wanted to say O yeah I'm still on the search for Sucata Turtle Got confirmation that it is there Butte blend in with the boulders

Wow mohs, it really is all happening at the zoo. I LOVE the Sonoran Desert tortoise & will anxiously await for you to catch up with the sulcata.
A new Years quest.

Terror Bird at Night Yep I'm learning too In atrium set up they had turtle called A pancake. Its a real soft-shelled turtle. So no good for defense. The soft shell allows it to wedge in to tight crevices For defensive purposes It was wedged in head first in crevice Of some rocks or I would have taken a picture . Next time...

mohs , pancake tortoises are quite cool. In fact I know of a couple of people that keep them as pets.
They are funny how flat they are & they are adapted to living in these rocky areas , and they crawl sideways into the rocky crevasses. They are native to southern Africa, so I guess being able to crawl into a crack into a rock may help you from getting eaten by a lion.
Boy, a picture would be cool , if only you can get him to crawl out from under his rock
Thanks Mohs !

see now I'm learning lots liveoak Patty Very cool ! O I’ll get a good shot of Pancake I only try to capture the animules At there best characteristics and even tho it had cute butte it wouldn’t be flattering We all dislike unphotogenic pictures of ourselves Which is hard for a photographer to capture mohs in all his glory Cause we all knohs I’m funky monkee O as addendum I had one on one photo session with the African Male Lion It was incredible He was sitting just for me & even-started roaring! got long story about that Lion So yep stay tuned…

About 15 years ago I was at the Zoo I had the Zoo to myself Much like New Years Day 2023 On that particular occasion The Lioness and the Lion were off in the far corner Behind a tree in the shadows. I was standing at the rail just looking on Then the Lioness came strolling out towards me & laid down on the rock Admiring me I’m sure. Then I saw this great hulking mane Emerging from the shadows. O he was stalking out and in that sly Lion way had his eye on M hs! He was jealous ! Ha So he came up to his lady. All of suffed the started wrestling and make deep sounds! I snapped a quick picture with some unknown camera ! Then I figured I better vamoose out there Cause I was a 3rd party And that can be deadly Mostly
