Today is Jan 16. The temperature is 40 degrees F according to my outdoors thermometer. The time was about 11 AM. Temps last night were down into the mid 20's.

I just happened to go in my backyard this morning because the neighbors behind me had cut down a couple of trees that border my property. I just wanted to see how that might effect my yard. I happened to go over and look in the turtle enclosure and found one of my young turtles that hatched out in 2008 up catching some rays.

Have any of you all ever seen this kind of behavior in these cold temps?

Check him/her out here..........
