Mystery Answered
Monday's Mystery was taken at the Warden's Watch of the Celery Farm, just moments after a turtle (slider) laid her eggs. Pretty tidy.

Oh boy, first a mystery symphonic bird–now a symphonic turtle! But at least I laid another egg (or a whole clutch) with all my speculative responses. Congratulations to those who at least had turtely answers. I guess it is, “It’s turtles all the way down.” (But I regress.) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turtles_all_the_way_down
