🌊🐢 **Turtle Power: Our Armor-Clad Allies** 🐢🌊

As the sun casts its golden rays upon the earth, let us not forget the silent voyagers of the blue - our ancient friends, the turtles. This World Turtle Day, let's dive deep into the importance of these magnificent creatures and their role in the tapestry of life.

Turtles, with their bony carapaces and wise eyes, have been navigating the waters and lands long before us. They are the custodians of marine health, the gardeners of our seabeds, and the storytellers of our planet's history.

Yet, they face threats from all fronts - from plastic pollution to habitat destruction. It's our duty to shield them as they have the earth, ensuring their tales continue for eons to come.

Join us in celebrating World Turtle Day by learning, sharing, and taking action. Let's create ripples of change that will turn into waves of conservation for our shelled companions.

📚 Learn about their plight.

🔄 Share their stories.

🛠 Take action to protect their habitats.

Together, we can ensure that turtles continue to thrive, not just survive. Let's make every day a World Turtle Day.

Brave is the bee, brave is the hand that holds it.

From my expedition to summit Africa's beautiful Mt. Kilimanjaro, this porter allows a bee to rest gently on his outstretched hand. I marveled at the man's patience and trust in this tiny creature.

One year ago today, you crossed the rainbow bridge. And I still miss you.

My teary-eyed gratitude to popular mural artist Goodloe Byron for his original painting of my recently dearly departed Jack Russell Terrier, Tiki. Its whimsical energy brings me a smile at his memory. 🐾
