Two photos from a lovely walk this morning with an old friend. A chance to walk, chat and sit and enjoy the lazy goings on at the pond. I was struck by both the greenness of the frond in the first photo, along with its perfect reflection in the water. In the second photo, there are two turtles sunning themselves on a log. But, they are pretty well camouflaged so you can’t really see them.

The turtles were fun to watch. They both crawled up onto the log, then slowly shifted and moved until they were both balanced on the log to keep it from tipping. Teamwork and patience. Admirable qualities.
