[AZTinman]

I've posted photos from my recent La Paz trip on www.cortezbluephotography.com . If you're interested in taking a look, go to the website, click on the portfolio link and open the La Paz folder. There are some decent sea lion photos. Fun stuff!

Awesome, thanks for sharing Tinman!

What is the eel-like critter in the first couple pictures?

 

[AZTinman]

It looks kinda like an eel, but it's a giant jawfish (Opistognathus rhomaleus). We baited one out of its burrow.

Thought this photo of a giant jawfish was interesting.

The species holds its eggs in its mouth. This one expelled its eggs during our photo session and sucked the eggs back into its mouth.
