These fun photos, taken in mid March by my husband Pieter, show you our TURTLE KINDERGARTEN in the pond! Are they not precious? The way they all line up on a piece of wood that is left in there where once was the fountain on an island. It got too often clogged up and we had to row to it in a boat for cleaning it up.
Here are at least four KINDERGARTEN TURTLES and some bigger ones with a larger teenager.
But as soon as you show up, they dive into the pond...
Taking a photo was so tricky!
In the pond are the new leaves of the waterlilies as well as old leaves and catkins from the huge semi evergreen oak tree.
Can you see them? To the right of that tall tree's shade in the water...
From a different angle.
Life as a Turtle is good...
Below are two links from previous posts where you can see the mama turtle digging in the eggs.
Do you have turtles in your pond or garden?
Have you ever seen baby turtles grow up?
