A Sneak Attack?


This Mallard was so busy grooming itself that it didn't notice the large turtle which was slowly moving towards it. A sneak attack? Or just heading for a nicer position? I didn't stay around to see the finale.

Never thought of turtles as aggressive. Both of them will likely be just fine.

Yes, I do still have my Peacock and I just read your comment it seems thanks to Elephant Child bringing it to my attention, most of my comments have been going into my spam folder. How weird, I hope they fix it fast!
