      Yes, they are the most vibrant and splendid creatures I have had the privilege of holding and observing. The hatchlings are almost the size of a silver dollar, but how they grow up fast! Just to peer into their world for a brief second is priceless 🙂

      Thank you, Ron! It is my pleasure! I feel as though we are two like-minded spirits on a sojourn for inspiration and meaningful words. The journey is much more enjoyable when it is shared. Hope you are having a most excellent day 🙂

    Reblogged this on The ancient eavesdropper and commented:

    Turtles always cheer up my day, especially hatchlings. I hope this little guy brings a smile to your face. Remember, for all of our problems, there is always something smaller to put us in our place and give us a fresh perspective on life. Cheers, Tyler 🙂
