They live outside in our back yard during the summer but I bring them in for the winter. (Next year, I'll probably have a winter shelter built for them outside with heaters and lamps, as we rarely see the freezing point in this damned sub-tropic climate. No tortoises were injured in the making of the scene, though I probably caused the larger of them (about 60 pounds/28kg in weight) to look over, snort, and blink his beady eyes at me.
My left eye is now unbandaged but the swelling around it has affected the visual acuity a tad, so I am not spending a lot of time doing e-mail at present. It is wonderful to have binocular vision again. For two days, I had to VERY carefully go down the stairs from the second floor to the first, and I can now do that a lot more easily.
