Every Creature Is Unique

Every creature on earth is unique!!! There is difference between two turtles living in one basin. 

Lady first. Timon is a lady, most of the time!!! She usually prefers to bathing in the water just the same as we do in a hot spring. She is quiet, most of the time!!! She likes stretching her limbs just the same we girls do yoga. But when she senses there is food somewhere, you will see: her focused eyes, out-stretching neck, cautiously peddling limbs towards the victim, but not a slice of lady-like behaviour at all!!! Once catch it, it's a quick run to prevent being robbed by Pumbaa!!! Haaa~~just the same big cats ambush their prey in the wildness!!! I'm so glad that such thought of grab every opportunity to full her stomach is in her DNA!!! 
When meal time, she will take a bite, whatever it's my finger or the shrimp, to show her eagerness of eating, and then waiting for serving!!! As if she is saying:"I'm the Princess. I shall be served!!!" When there is 80% fill in her stomach, she will ignore your feeding and starts this circle: swimming for a while--rolling her eyes--biting a bit!!! That is why she got the nickname of "Stinky cunning"!!!

This is Timon's yoga pose!!!

Pumbaa's nickname is "Stinky dumb". Because he always want to do "Prison Break"!!! While Timon is taking leisure time, he is crawling all the time. Maybe he wants to take some adventure. I don't know why until recently I find he will be quiet after a long "walk"---like dogs do when asking for an outside walk!!! 

So they are almost the same in appearance, but totally different in nature!!!

New Chapter On My Turtles

As every tale begins likes this: Long ago and far away, there is an island near the land of America. On that beach, hundreds and thousands baby turtles broke their eggs and rushed forward the sea!!! But four of them found it's no fun to go with others as they rushed towards sewage pipes underground!!! And thanks to human wastes, they turned themselves into the four legendary Ninja Turtles!!!

Well, not long ago--just about one and half year ago (in winter time), and not far away--only few blocks from my residence. Two baby turtles were put into a plastic bag and brought home!!! They are  Timon and Pumbaa!!! They were only three centimetre in diameter. Tiny, and hibernating!!! This is how they started to share their lives with me!!!

Due to lack of the knowledge of turtles-raising, I were always making disturbs to their hibernation by putting them into the water and trying to feed them and pulling their limbs out!!! Anyway, they survived that winter. Only Pumbaa suffered an eye ailment and lost a tile at the bottom!!! He recovered quickly and is in good health now^^
