An adult red-foot tortoise (Geochelone carbonaria)
digging a nest in the garden. She did not do a very
good job of it - the hole was not deep enough so the eggs
did not drop down as they should have. She laid a total
of 4 eggs but since the hole was not right she could not
cover them properly. I removed the eggs - dug the hole
deeper, replaced the eggs and covered them with soil.
With any luck there will be baby tortoise hatchlings
in about 4 months.
