乌龟-游泳的好天气(Turtle-y nice day for a swim)
这是一只佛罗里达红腹海龟,在佛罗里达州彩虹泉州立公园的清澈水域中浸泡,庆祝世界海龟日。这种河龟每天大部分时间都在佛罗里达州充足的阳光下晒太阳,啃食植被,但游泳也能让它凉爽下来。众所周知,红腹海龟会潜入鳄鱼的巢穴产卵。如果你想找个人来保护你的孩子,你不妨把它变成一只鳄鱼!
原文:
That's a Florida red-bellied turtle celebrating World Turtle Day with a dip in the clear waters of Rainbow Springs State Park in Florida. This river turtle species spends the bulk of its day basking in Florida’s abundant sunshine and chomping on vegetation, but it’s nice to cool off with a swim, too. Red-bellied turtles have been known to sneak into alligator nests to lay eggs. If you’re going to find someone to protect your kids, you might as well make it an alligator!
