Exciting Moment at the Ponds

It just had to be an exciting moment for this Pond Turtle when a fish jumped and caused rings in the water at Delta Ponds. Now tell me, what could be more exciting for a pond turtle than to sit and contemplate those water rings? What else is there to do? LOL

Turtle thought: "If you think those rings are big, you should see the ones I make!" Great shot!
Judith Barnett16-Jul-2014 18:56
Maybe the rings mean you should make a wish! I wish there would be more fish! ;D Great image to contemplate Vern.
