Morning Miracle (Irma)

The days at the Centre keep getting better and better. Today I worked on my display for the terrapins which have left us…almost done. At 11:00 am we left for turtle patrol, then we had lunch, we started back to the Centre after lunch when we ran into one of the gardeners. Excitedly telling Rachel he was looking for her, rhe eached out his hand and placed a baby terrapin into the palm of her hand. Well if you want to get Rachel excited that’s how you it…

He is the cutest thing ever and is the third baby terrapin found so far….he has a different appearance compared to Project which makes us believe he’s a different species. We’ve weighed and measured him, now he is in his own beautiful tank.

Baby Miracle. His flesh and shell are much darker than Project's.

Boniface who was excited to here we have another juvenile came to visit our baby Miracle as I named it. Miracle seems to be very agile but is now hiding in his tank, and I’m excited to learn more about this little fellow and hope we end up figuring out his species.
