On Friday, Mort was standing up on the floating platform! Alas, he hopped down into the water each time I came in. Working on really quiet feet, I finally caught a photo.
Mort has always come to the front of his tank when someone is there. Is it because he likes seeing someone there? Is it because he hopes he will be fed? Does he follow your finger on the glass because he likes to or because he thinks it's food? No answers. Only Mort knows.
Also on Friday, it was time to go for a walk in my neighborhood to look for signs of spring outside to share with you.
Answers to your questions about Mort:
Yes, Mort loved moving from the Rubbermaid tub to the glass tank. You can tell because he is swimming a lot, going under the waterfall, and coming to the front to say "Hi!" the way he usually does. When he's cold or worried, he pulls inside his shell. More activity means he is happier and more comfortable.Mort has always come to the front of his tank when someone is there.

The yellow of winter aconite are the first flowers I look for each year. They let me know spring is here.

It was getting really windy and starting to rain a little, but it was nice to be outside.
