Day 42: A Perching Box Turtle

“Perching.” It’s not just for feathered beings.

Of course, since no one ever tells the large shell-less beings facts like this, you can feel sure your personal large shell-less assistant is going to overreact the first time she sees you.

Perching.

Like a bird.

Up high in your plant just like your feathery brother.

Just like it is a normal thing that all box turtles do every day.

Box turtle perching. It is a thing….a thing which you sure wish someone had told your staring, lurking, picture-popping large shell-less assistant about before you arrived to join the flock!
