Sunny day☀ The wind blows gently over Ishigaki island\(^o^)/
The visibility hasn’t been the best the last few days, but I think it improved slightly at Yonehara today(;^ω^)
However, at Manta point it was still pretty bad(T_T) Also, no mantas today. We had such high hopes(/ω\) As always of course(/・ω・)/
At least the corals looked healthy and beautiful as always☆
This Clown anemonefish was
ふかふかのベッドに守られて幸せのカクレクマノミ♪
This Crocodilefish had made itself comfortable among the corals. A soft coral was almost hitting its eye(;・∀・)
Lots of Glassfishes inside the underwater tunnel♪ There might be slightly less of them this year compared to last, but when they gather in big schools it’s spectacular\(^o^)/
An Ornate ghost pipefish☆ It’s a clear favorite among our divers and we can find many of them around this time of the year(*’ω’*)
A newly hatched squid♪♪ There was three of them, one skillfully squirted ink and managed to camouflage itself, the others got eaten by fish… Nature can be brutal(;´・ω・)
A small Flatworm, around 1cm big. On the sandy soil we saw several Nudibranches(≧▽≦)
An Electric clam♪ From a crack in the rock it reflected the light as I shone my flashlight on it☆
I also found many crabs and shrimps(*^▽^*)
Can you find the Spider crab? It has camoflaged itself really well♪
We also saw this Anemone crab☆
Squat shrimps♪
And Anemone shrimp!
From tomorrow the weather will be strange again because of the typhoon passing north of Okinawa, but diving will still be fun(≧▽≦)
