Giant Tortoise in the Morning
Species: Giant Tortoise | Location: Galapagos Islands, Ecuador
I took this photograph of a giant tortoise emerging from a pond on Santa Cruz Island early in the morning. The pond water is warmer than the overnight air temperature, and the tortoises often retreat into shallow ponds at night.
