26/6/2006 - Indian Mackerel & Cucumber Turd

I took Michael for a dive off the beach today as part of his advanced specialty course.

On the way out we saw these Indian Mackerel feeding. I think it's great how they swim around with the jaws gaping.

We also looked at all the different sea cucumbers there are living off the beach here and noted that they all leave slightly different, although equally as impressive, turds. Observe and admire...

2. The String of Pearls
