Best of Mike #146

When we are in Bonaire.... we often make the last dive of the day a late afternoon, twilight dive.

You can fall off the dock right at the resort.... a short swim of 90 ft or so over a sandy bottom takes you out to the reef. Then over the wall and you are on a great dive.

On this particular day.... Linda and I were doing just that when we noticed a lot of commotion around a Tube Sponge up on the shoulder of the reef.


The first pixture in this post is what we found when we got over to that spot.

Except that the tail was wiggling.... and the sponge was flat out vibrating, as a result of  whatever was going on inside.

After just a few seconds, out popped the front end of that eel.... looking pretty happy.

At least, I'm thinking .... that's what happy looks like, on an eel.

If I had to guess.... I would think that a good meal was had, inside the sponge.
