This is an amazing photo - looks like falling leaves in front of the bird's reflection and elsewhere, but it's not autumn...

Disillusioned: If that's a tortoise, then I'm a giraffe! Why would a tortoise be in the middle of a pond ? Your elementary school science teacher would be cringing right now.

Egrets coming into their breeding plumage are so beautiful. Hate to be so negative, but that is an incredibly average photo of a Great Egret. But probably better than anything I could take.

You must have difficulty getting into trains cos tortoises have feet and turtles live in the ocean.
