I hope that wasn't you driving the taxi, someone could have had their nose flattened. Great shots of the sea snake, do you feel threatened by them while diving?
I just happened on the tricycle while in Tagbilaran City.
Once I learned that the Sea Snake had a mouth too small to bite humans except for a few areas of our body I don't fear getting close to them.
Hey Jim,
Great shots as usual. Just a word of warning about Sea Snakes if you ever come down too Australia. We have a species of snake here called a Stokes Sea Snake (Astrotia Stokesii) and they have a mouth and fangs like a land snake, They also can have the attitude to go with their abilities especially around the mating season. Thankfully their not that common, but I have had a couple of run ins with this species and it can get a little interesting!!!

Overall Australia has some of the most dangerous critters on the planet.
