Visitor to our yard



Today, this tortoise came to visit. My husband was pressure washing the patio, and the tortoise stopped by to have a drink. Afterward, he ambled around the yard, checking out the fountain area. He didn't seem overly concerned about me taking his photo. Carmine, my cat, was MOST interested! Carmine loves other animals of all kinds. He flirted shamelessly with the tortoise, showed him his tummy, and talked up a storm. Later, we took down the Christmas tree. Carmine helped, hiding in the branches and pouncing on the lights as we tried to unwind them.


Afterwards, he needed a long drink and then a nap!
