Today my tortoise, Charlie, tried to get in the picture.

I love Charlie!!! His baby pic is adorable too!
I absolutely adore all animals, so I'm really intrigued with Charlie.....
You say he lives in your backyard, so does he ever try to dig out or is he just content? Also, I'm assuming he recognizes you and knows you well after 14 years, so when you go outside does he come crawling to you? Is he affectionate? Sorry for all the questions but I'm just so curious!
 
He is a big boy! That is a full size briefcase he's with. He is 14 years old. I haven't measured him recently. I think he must be close to 2 feet long. When I first got him, he was a couple of inches long. Here is a picture of him being held by my 10 year old.

Oh wow this is awesome!!!!! Such a cutie! Lol I love the pic of him with the briefcase, I have to admit I wasn't expecting that photobomb!!
 
Oh my gosh, I've enjoyed popping in here and checking out everyone's little photobombing babies. Black kitty in the box and Abby (I swear she was smiling in one pic, lol) were my favorites but they all are too cute for words. Thanks for sharing everyone, this was a great idea OP!
 
Oh Lord, I have numerous Coach/feline photobomb pics...my little girl Kahlua is such a diva and MUST be the centre of attention...here are just a few shots. My one boy Tequila gets in a few of my pics completely by accident but my other boy Guinness tends to avoid the camera as much as possible. ;)

A couple of years ago, he dug a hole that went under our neighbor's property. He wasn't trying to escape. When he digs, the tunnel just keeps going deeper. It never comes up. He just keeps instinctively increasing the size of his burrow. My neighbor got upset and built a wall that was sunk several feet into the ground to keep Charlie on our side of the fence. Now he has a hole that goes under our patio. During the winter, he might stay under for several weeks. If it gets rainy or too cold, he has a spot on the patio with a heat lamp. During the warmer months, he is out most of the day. If I go out into the yard, he comes over to see me. He is shy around strangers. He recognizes me. He isn't really affectionate but he lets me pat his head and he will eat out of my hand. When the plums fall off the tree, he gets plum juice all over his face and it looks like he is wearing lipstick.

We call him a bulldozer because he never thinks about going around objects. Sometimes he will go under the patio furniture and end up carrying it on his back.

When he was a baby, I took him to show and tell for my daughter's class. I didn't realize then that reptiles could get nervous. It was traumatic for him.

I love this. So fascinating! Hilarious about wearing the patio furniture and I literally LOL'd about the plum lipstick. Plz say you have a pic of this!
I'm all for loving unusual pets. About 3 years ago, my daughter and I befriended some Canada geese that had just had babies. We went to visit them every day that entire summer and saw those babies grow into adult geese. We took buckets of cracked corn every day, and when approaching, I'd call out "hi babies!" and 25 geese would get out of the water and come running down the hill to meet us. We hand fed them and pet them. When strangers would approach they'd all quickly retreat to the water until the people left, then they'd get back out and surround us. They would even take naps right beside us. It was incredible. I miss them to this day!
