Here’s a few pics I snapped while taking a cooling swim around the docks a few days ago. Click away for a better look.
This one is of one of the many tubeworms that grow on almost everything. This particular one is growing on a sunken tugboat in the shallows.
I was delighted to find a couple Banded Coral Shrimp on the side of one of the docks. These guys are larger than they look; the six antennae are at least ten inches long.
There has been some great tarpon activity in the shallows lately. It’s easy to get close to these large fish, but mighty hard to get a good picture. Anyways, this pic of a pair cruising the feeding grounds is for Clive…
This particular Fairy Basslet can always be found along one stretch of retaining wall in our haul-out pit. I’ve tried and tried to get a “normal” shot if it, but have read that these fish are very commonly found cruising ledges and walls on their sides or upside down.
By the way, I LOVE my new underwater camera housing…
