A green sea turtle seen from straight above, swimming up the picture, with one big red hibiscus flower filling its shell. The shell is a dark green oval with a pale yellow rim all the way round. The flower has five rounded red petals parted by dark lines, a deeper red throat and one pale yellow stamen that slants up to the right and ends in a square knob. Two long front flippers sweep out to the sides and back, two short rounded rear flippers trail behind, and a blunt head with two dark eyes leads at the top; a small pointed tail shows at the bottom.
