Winter time is a great time for eating. There doesn’t seem to be much else to do beside swim around the pond, after all. It is cold outside and there is dormancy about the landscape. My human does not much like the cold, nor do I. Therefore, we stay inside. This has given me plenty of time to brush up on my hunting skills.
Where there once were three guppies, now there are none. I have become quite frustrated with Ralph however - he is one of the goldfish my human tried to feed me… but he grew up before I could eat him. The guy is a real pest. He is always trying to get to my food while my human feeds me. Sometimes I bite him. Sometimes its not by accident. He’s bruised up for sure, he just never learns. While I have grown accustom to his presence, I am forever annoyed with him.
Turtles taste buds are different from humans in that they are not well developed. Efficient enough… but that is all. Only a few species of turtle even have taste buds. So you can imagine how important it is to me to enjoy the things I can taste. Like shrimp. My human bought me some new shrimp the other day -
Looking forward to spring time when the clovers and the dandelions begin to bloom. My human will surely pick them fresh and feed them to me. If I’m lucky she will plant some grass in my tank soon. I hear rumor that she’s thinking of modifying my space again. This will surely lead to a fresh batch of goldfish.- that should make it easier for me to catch Ralph... once I get just a little bit bigger.
