I am glad you found this Tortoise Roy, I read that the pet trade has damaged numbers, perhaps not in your location. That is a stunning low level angle very detailed, kudos!

A wonderful sighting Roy - I've never heard of this species before and think this may be the first to come into the Gallery too.

A fabulous picture my friend, thanks.
