Most dive operations, on Cozumel, including Scuba Club.... don't work on New Years Day.
But shore diving was still an option.... so we took it.
This dive turned out to be one of the best that we had all week.
The reef isn't that much too look at.... but on this day it was a wealth of small critters, including 3 we had never seen before.
Web Burrfish are quite shy and spend most of their time tucked into crevices along the reef.
Very occasionally, you will find one swimming slowly near the bottom.
But go slow and be gentle.... as they will inflate when molested.
Isn't it wonderful when our expectations are low how somehow the Universe finds a way to amaze us? This little guys is quite an interesting fellow... :)
ReplyDeleteCertainly enjoy ur pics, Mike.
ReplyDeleteI have no concept of size when it comes to these wonderful critters Just how big is the Web Burrfish?
