i have become obsessed with something odd

[rm]

Very small turtles with very large food.

There is turtle with potatoes:

Turtle with strawberry:

And now turtle with raspberry:

Patty's been using them as desktop images on her computer.

What is up with these turtles?
Why are they so adorable?
Why do they turn me into such a cooing girl?
Are there other tiny turtles with giant food pictures I've not yet seen?

I can't have them at the moment because of the animals we rescue (it would be a bad fit), but I've always had a huge soft spot for turtles. They are very endearing creatures, to me.

Your pictures are all lovely, but the third one is astonishing. The raspberry sets off not only the size of the turtle, but the iridescence of its coloring and the detail of its markings and structure with such starkly simple perfection that it knocks the breath from me. And then there's the deliciously grumpy expression on its face.
