Talk about slow traffic… not the internet…

I came across this tortoise the other day, streaking down the lawn at an awful speed… the sun was on the wrong side for good photos so I asked him/her to turn around….

He/she answered that it would be quicker if I moved to his other side, or I must wait for the afternoon when the sun would then be right…. (clever reptile showing me up like that)… Well I was too darn lazy to move around to his other side, there was a six foot fence in my way in any case…

So here is what I captured…. enjoy….

wonder why he/she did not have a shower after the last painting job they did ????

“Hello there” it seems to be saying in this photo….

Wonder if I’d have seen a difference in photos if I had of taken a few at 3 frames per second ???
