In the water, I noticed some rocks glistening in the sun. But as my
binoculars focused on them, I was shocked. They were turtles! And then I
saw movement under the water: more flapshell turtles, swimming with only
their head sticking out. Just a week back, the ground was barren. Where did
the turtles come from? I learnt from a book that they slept under the
ground during the dry summer, waiting for the pond to fill up again. In their
honour I started calling it the Flapshell Pond!
