WEEKEND REFLECTIONS--the turtles are out


It's warm enough here in Seattle (not that warm by my standards....) for the turtles at Green Lake to be out sunning themselves. Most line up on floating logs, but this individualist opted for a tree branch.  Is this a new stage in evolution, tree-climbing-turtles?

I like turtles a lot!

There's a pond here where they tend to do that, but I haven't seen them yet.

If I were a turtle a sun warmed branch would be my choice. Green Lake is such a delightful place. I used to roller skate around it.

Beautiful black and white shot!

I know you love turtles—and I'll be impressed with his evolutionary progress when he gets high enough in the tree to require rescuing.

SUNSET

  A beautiful urban sunset over New Belgrade. The 'smoke' from the stacks on the left is actually just steam from the heating plant....
