A Few Bahamas Pictures

Lionfish..........
I would be online for a MONTH to share all of the great underwater pictures from the Bahamas...so this is a quick overview...if anyone wants more...email us... This is another Lionfish...they can be lethal if touched...and they are not from here (the Bahamas) but they are reproducing here and the concern is that because they have no natural predators they will take over habitat. Pretty they are...but stay away!!!!
This was a HUGE Blue Parrotfish....
This is a Smooth Trunkfish....
And then there are these guys...really was pretty cool to have them swimming around...
I'll admit I got a little nervous when they headed straight for us....
Reef Sharks....not sure I'll do that again...but it was fun...once....
Sargassum Triggerfish.... Picture from the beach of North Bimini...we docked there for the night and PARTIED...it was fun...but there were a few that didn't make it up for the first morning dive - the younger "kids"...but I DID!!!
Sun Anemone....
There were lots of dive (swim) throughs....
Hawksbill Turtle with Gray Angelfish and French Angelfish all eating the same coral area...
The boat from a night dive...
Giant Basket Star...it coils up into a ball during the day and only at night unrolls itself to feed.
My "bunk" was the top one....there were 18 divers on a 65 foot boat!!!
Goatfish and Grunts...
Queen Triggerfish....
French Angelfish...
Queen Angelfish....
That's all for now...there were so many good ones to choose from!!!!
