Turtle Trio

Three turtles in every row, column and coloured zone. Turtles never touch, not even diagonally.

Tents by the pond

One tent beside each tree, horizontally or vertically. Tents never touch, even diagonally. Match the tent totals beside each row and column.

Islands in the pond

Each number belongs to an island of that many squares. Islands never join sideways. The water stays connected, with no 2×2 square of water.

Bridges over water

Connect every island with one or two straight bridges. Match each island's number. Bridges never cross, and all islands must be connected.
