Ok... so its not really a new girlfriend, but he thinks it is! Lately George has been getting funky with one of the stones in his tank! Its always the same stone (he's a one stone turtle! very faithful). Most of the time that he's in the water is spent trying to woo this stone. lol. I have been trying to get some pic's but he's pretty shy about his new love. Sorry the pic's are so blurry, but I have to sneak up on him to take them.

Its hard work hitting on a stone all day, time for a well earned rest!

I laugh each and every time I see one of these poor boys trying to seduce a pretty river rock!

This reminds me of that Shel Silverstein poem about a turtle who falls in love with a bagpipe.
