I took this shot at the Rancho Santa Ana Botanical Gardens this weekend. It was a beautiful day. I went to see their little butterfly exhibit. In a small pond on the other side of the gardens the turtles were swimming around like crazy!

Just added my post to your linky list, it's the last of a week's worth of shots from Switzerland during our March-April European trip.
I love your turtle. (Of course, I always love photos of turtles, but this one is special. Wonderful colors and it's swimming toward pieces of birthday cake decorations!)

RED SKY IN MORNING
Red sky in morning,
Sailors take warning!
Who knows what might happen out on the sea?
Waves riding high,
Waves to the sky,
Waves crashing and dashing all over me!
Red sky at night,
Sailors delight!
Leeward or windward we sail with no fear;
Water is calm,
Healing like balm—
Ahoy, fellow sailors, landfall is near!
