Snapped a few pics while I was releasing these girls into their new home. They didn't exactly sit around waiting for pics so this is all I was able to get. I thought I'd be a bit sad releasing them but it turns out I feel pretty good about it. They're gonna be happy

Thanks Squirt..

I'm going to put 'I'm a chick' in my sig line lol

That pond is on private, very secure property and those RES were adopted, not just 'released'. When I used that word it was in regards to physically letting them go, out of my care.

Will I ever have heart to let my turtle go? I don't think so.

That's a good thing you've set them free janaero :)
