The continuing sagas of the Blue Heron Bridge

[fisheyeview]

We have Navanax here?!?!?!?!? :shocked2: You know they eat the nudi's, yes?

It's a Head Shield Slug Chelidonura hirundinina. They eat flat worms.

One of the species I found a couple of weeks ago changes colors based upon which nudis eggs it eats.

I love the colors on teh 2nd starfish shot, and the batfish was a real poser.

Some shots from today. I dove the west span while most others dove the east (no pile-ups on the clover leaf!)

The stars

The real star of this dive

Odds & ends

I couldn't help but take this shot!

Posed for it...

Juvenile Porkfish

Hey! A new color nudi for me

I brought my camera up to critique trim shots from yesterday with two AOW students, and didn't want to leave it in the car while we were in the water, so I took it along. I only have a wide lens, so I really wasn't expecting to take any pictures, but the viz was so good I couldn't resist firing off a few more trim critique photos.

Nice shots Kev. I have thought about doung W/A at the bridge, but never have.

Made it out to BHB this morning with a few of my buddies. While I was there, I saw lots of other divers and even had a chance to chat with fisheyeview and his wife Kelly (sorry Kelly, forgot your online username). We even joined fisheyeview, Kelly and a few other divers for lunch after the dive - thanks guys for the advice and for the lunch invite!

Fisheyeview and Kelly gave me some great advice on where to find the real tiny stuff, unfortunately, I didn't get the info until after the dive, so I didn't get any shots of the nudis I was looking for, but I'm definitely ready for the next BHB dive!

I did manage to get a few keeper shots of some bleenies, which took over some old bottles on the bottom and designated them their new home.

Looking forward to my next BHB dive!!!

The viz dropped off a bit from yesterday, but ever optimistic, I toted the rig, 10-17 and all. Everyone kept talking about all of the frogfish, but all I could find was a pile of seaweed and rocks. I don't see what's so great about this place.
