For all intents and purposes, it’s Spring. But some I know are pretending they didn’t get the memo. Remember the Pyxis arachnoides brygooi from a few weeks ago? Their lights are on, the heat has been turned up. It’s time for wakey-wakey. I get a few subtle hints they’re not quite ready.

- Go away!

- I don’t care if it IS March! Have you seen the forecast?
Some of them are dug in more deeply now that they were a few months ago, like they’re trying to hit some kind of snooze bar. Click to enlarge.
As long as you can’t see me, I’m asleep!
This one was in such a hurry to go back to bed after I woke it up for soaking that it didn’t get tucked back in all the way.
Nothing to see here, folks!
And then there’s my favorite. Cracks me right up!
Yeah, that’s lunch to the right of her. She’d rather sleep than eat. I know the feeling, don’t you? And those are some for serious sand piles! She was in a hurry to get back to bed!
Happy tortoise day!

Do hope they don’t know more about what’s to come weatherise than you do!
I didn’t even think about it that way! I am getting out my winter coat again!
They’re just saying “You can’t fool me! You want me to think it’s Spring, but I know better!”
And maybe they do. I know how hard it was for me to get out of bed this morning!
That’s me every morning. “NO NO NO! STOP IT, ALARM! I AM SO COMFY UNDER THESE BLANKETS!”
Those are some smart tortoises!
I felt that way this morning. “NOOO!” It’s funny how they have dug in deeper now that they are expected to wake up.
Rather sleep than eat? Can’t identify at all.
It’s a toss up, really. Depends on what is being served.
