Default Hungry turtles

In a temple inside the Bharatpur bird sanctuary, India, is this small pond that has over 550 turtles. The temple feeds them regularly and this is how they flourish. Took some shots of them. A few people that I have shared them with find them ugly/unpleasant. I think I know why. Also, these are no good technically, but still hope they interest you.

Look forward to your comments, as always!

They are kind of ugly, but in a good way. They kind of look like pig nose turtles. I wonder how old they are?! Nice shots.
