THE ORIGINAL RED EAR RETURNS

I am sure this is the smaller of two Terrapins I know quite locally that last year I did not spot?

The one I did see I am sure is a couple inches bigger than this one? Anyhoo this was the second Terrapin seen that day and spotted between some bushes while on my bike on the way home! I was of course looking out for these ones, there were two originally, so not a big deal spotting it really.


THE RED EARED ALIEN

Well there is an alien in the vicinity down at the cotton mill!

Not spotted by me previously a Red Eared Terrapin of the North American Clemmys ... errrr or is that Macroclemmys genus. Sometimes going under the silly name of Red Eared Sliders no doubt called by children in America because they look like they are sliding down ramps into water?

Oh wait or have I got this correct?

I filmed two of these four miles apart and one of them I know and have posted films and photos of it previously. One I have not, lol.
