Smile New Photos Of Sheldon

I finally caught some photos of Sheldon basking. He does the cutest thing where he raises one of his back legs. I'm sure it's common to all turtles but it's all new to me and I just go "awww" when I see him like that...

Aww, cutie pie! I love it when they lift a leg like that. They look so funny sometimes, the positions they put themselves in!

Sheldon seems to like playing peek-a-boo in the Amazon Frogbit...

I had to laugh when I caught Sheldon basking with some floating plants on top of his shell...not to mention the usual "leg up in the air" pose.
