Color Your World: 120 Days of Crayola; Copper
My Turtle
This turtle hung out in my garden most of last summer. It was the first I had seen him. I thought his coloring was very nice, as his body was Copper colored, as well as the markings on his shell.
Copper was in the Crayola Collection in 1903, so it was one of the first colors, and then in 1915 it was discontinued. It was brought back into the collection in 1958.
This post is just one of many in the Color Your World: 120 Days of Crayola Challenge! Enjoy!

Copper is a wonderful colour and I love copper coloured skies like this one: https://dechareli.files.wordpress.com/2015/09/dieffert-04oct2010-3.jpg I am a little proud of that picture. I was lucky: At the right time with a camera in our garden. 😃
Great picture, Charles!
Thanks. 😊
Not sure that link works, sorry for that… http://dechareli.net/2015/10/27/beethoven-violin-concerto/
He is very handsome. I think he’s an Eastern Box Turtle. 🙂
Thanks I will have to look that up! I know about turtles about as much as I know about flowers!
Yes I looked him up! He is a male Carolina Box Turtle. Davidson College, which is also here, studies them. So perhaps I have an educated turtle!
