What a fantastic find! Do these roam freely? A really good capture of him too. Your daughter may grow up to be a naturalist too.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

A strong close-up......love its "expression" put that in quotes at they always wear the same expression no matter what is happening.........must be a natural selection thing

What a great capture........I wouold normally say great reflexes at this point but I think it would be safe to say, this guy was not going anywhere quick. As always your subjects are perfectly preserved for us all to see. thanks for sharing.

AKAJON: Most people lye asleep and notice nothing around them. Just wake up and see the natural beauty around you. It will blow you away.

Looks like you and your daughter had a fun hike! Great shot of the tortoise. He looks a little upset at being photographed, or maybe that's his perpetual mood.
