It was a warm and sunny day today so I decided to let Serra go outside for probably the first time in her entire life! ( I doubt they took turtles for walks in the pet store ) She was VERY enthusiastic, running everywhere, smelling things...I only had three pics that were not blurry!

After walking around, I put her in her feeding tub outside and fed her a worm and an ant. She didn't like the ant, though! Turtles can be pretty picky!

Hope you enjoy my pics!

Very nice! She blends in very well.. gotta keep an extra eye on her :D

The earthworms are fine, but you can skip the ant...

Cutie!
I think it might still be a bit cool in Vancouver to be letting him/her outside for any length of time though...

no, she's not a RES. She's suspected to be half Yellow-bellied Slider, half Peninsula Cooter
