Wordless Wednesday! November 17, 2021


While spending 2 weeks in Loreto, Baja Sur Mexico
we had the pleasure of meeting little Houdini...
a year old tortoise! So darn cute!
And here are his parents Barney and Vida! 



Barney and Vida are 9 years old and HUGE.
They love being fed lots of fruit and veggie scraps
around 2:30pm when they emerge  from their burrow!
Have a lovely Wordless Wednesday!

  3. So cute. Tortoises are always thought of as being slow, but are remarkably fast for their size.

  6. Wow! I like the little Houdini and turtles in general.
    All the time I read about some creatures that lives more than humans, I asked myself how to find a way of communication...
    Thanks for sharing the images with your new friends!
    Happy WW and a fine week!

  13. Little Houdini is quite energetic. I have a feeling that he (?) is a little bit of a troublemaker. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com
