Hello, deer
The snow leopard
And they're racing!
Before the races
On the edge
Go no further!
It's a long tale
Here's looking at you.
The big fella
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
What's that?
Remembering?

I'm aawayyyy!
A very small Eastern Long-Necked Turtle (Chelodina longicollis), common to eastern Australia, making a hasty headlong retreat into leaf litter after being released. I had rescued it from the middle of a road, where it had a serious risk of being run over. The size can be seen from the other images in the notes.
These turtles have the unique habit of tucking their heads sideways under their shells as a defensive mechanism, as seen in the notes, which also show the colourful underside. These turtles can grow to a shell size of about 25cm with the neck extending beyond by a similar distance.
I guess this is a fairly obvious link.
