I've been inspired by all the lovely blogs of friends (and friends of friends) to commence with the picture posting. Here's a photo Roger took of our turtle, Tara. Isn't she a cutie? She's shy but very photogenic. She likes bananas, crickets, sunlight, and frequent water spritzes. She dislikes greens (bad girl), excessive handling, and sudden movements.

I had a dream the other night that I, too, got a pet turtle. (It's been a secret hope of mine ever since I read Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing.) Does Tara live in some kind of tank, or does she roam freely around the house?
I only just saw this message, Chrissa! Apologies for not responding sooner. Tara lives in a big rubbermad tub in our kitchen. She needs a really specialized habitat in order to be healthy and happy (we're talking uva/uvb lights, a heating bad, a thermometer, etc.). I'd love to let her roam around the house but I fear Escher would contribute to an untimely death. :)
