Exhausted George

It was early (7:30 a.m.) on June 26th when I took this picture of Lonesome George.  I honestly thought he was dead.  His head is hidden under the edge of his pen and he didn't move at all.  No signs of breathing, to twitches, nothing.  I watched for a while and absolutely no sign of life.  Now we know why!  Exhaustion!  The old guy was worn out!
