So, I'm pretty bored and can't sleep. Enjoy the pictures.

From when Archimedes and Calypso were still together. Now he has his own enclosure. She had just emerged from her burrow, if you can't tell. :D

Archimedes "roaring"

Imitating the humans.

When Archimedes goes outside, he always goes to the same place, but first he finds himself face to face with a sheer cliff...

After a few minutes of pacing and looking down, I help him out, only for him to run into another obstacle, which requires human intervention.

Finally he reaches his destination: a big pile of rocks. He enthusiastically climbs up and down them every time we go outside.

In case anyone is wondering about all the concrete, yes, I live in an apartment complex. I watch them closely when I take them out. They nibble occasionally on some of the weeds, but I personally called the landscape company that tends the grounds and they told me that all they do is cut the grass, they don't use any chemicals of any kind here.
