Flower Gardens Trip Report -- July 1-2, 04 (Part 1 of 2)

[Dee]

I love your videos. I just watched #6 with the Yellow Trunkfish. I've never seen them that far from the reef out in open water.

Those adult Spotted Drums still do that figure 8 dance. I didn't see the Juvies...or am I mistaken?

Dee,

I should have said "Adolescent" instead of juvies....but yes, they still do the figure 8 until they are all grown up.

Thanks for the compliment on the videos.
