The Zoo - IF


This is posted in response to Illustration Friday. This week's prompt is The Zoo. I loved finding Box turtles when I was a kid, but with all the development over the decades, I wonder if kids can only find turtles in the zoo near the suburbs these days?

This is beautiful. I tried to post earlier but IF and blogger sometimes don't get along. I love the design, the colors and miss the turtles in our neighborhood too.
