Turtles in Morning Sun

Turtles are cold-blooded, so their bodies warm up from the sun. In the morning they spread out on a log, and at midday they move into shade.

In the picture

  1. Badge 1 sits on the stretched neck of a turtle on the log.
  2. Badge 2 sits on the sunlit water beside the log.
  3. Badge 3 sits on the bush leaves above a turtle.
  4. Badge 4 sits on the shallow dip in the soil.

Examples

  • A lizard basking on a warm rock.
  • A snake moving under a shady bush.
