The wind has calmed down and the rain in the weather forecast for Ishigaki is nowhere to be seen☆*:.。. o(≧▽≦)o .。.:*☆ From tomorrow, the north wind will be back so we took the chance and went to manta point! There was quite a lot of swell on the way and at the dive site σ(^_^;)
But, there were also manta rays! (≧∇≦)There are many days we cannot go because of the weather conditions around this season, but it’s well worth the trip when we can✨

We also spotted this cutie☆☆ A small leafy scorpionfish♪

A well camouglaged scorpionfish♪ But it’s quite visible on top of the sand σ(^_^;)

A Moontail bullseye, they look black but turn bright red in the light✨✨

A ringeye jawfish poking the head out from its hole

A pair of robust ghost pipefishア♫

And a stick pipefish, it doesn’t look much like a fish at all ( ̄◇ ̄;)

A tiny squat shrimp(*^▽^*)

The north wind will be back tomorrow, I hope it won’t get too cold( ̄◇ ̄;)
