Sea Creatures
Greg and I got some great pictures this week of the wonderful sea creatures in Cozumel. Here are a few:
Gray Angelfish: Angelfish are just beautiful! They typically travel in pairs. This one just seemed to pose for me.
Hawksbill Turtle and Queen Angelfish: We've seen lots of turtles this week! This one was minding his own business, just eating away at the coral. He didn't mind us at all. He's surrounded by a couple of Queen Angelfish (the bright yellow and blue) and a Gray Angelfish.
Spotted Moray: This little cutie looks huge but he really isn't. His head is about the size of my fist. I found him on a deep dive just as we were coming out of a swim through that dumped us out close to the deep blue sea.
Queen Triggerfish: This picture doesn't really do the Queen justice. She's just beautiful and you don't see her very often.
Arrow Crab in a barrel sponge: He has long legs, a body that's shaped like a triangle, and little beady eyes. He can be found on coral heads sheltered behind things. You really have to look for him.
Queen Triggerfish: This picture doesn't really do the Queen justice. She's just beautiful and you don't see her very often.
Gray Angelfish: Angelfish are just beautiful! They typically travel in pairs. This one just seemed to pose for me.
