Wildlife and Wild Death


 This morning the Maui Pink Cap Swimmers got to see lots of underwater wildlife, and some dead wildlife as well.

On the live side we saw a number of Green Sea Turtles, two Starfish, one Spotted Eagle Ray, one Leopard Cowry, several regular Cowries, at least two Moray Eels, and lots and lots of fish.

On the dead side I found a mesh bag tangled inbetween some coral heads. When I pulled it up, I discovered at least four large dead fish. As we swam back toward shore, I noticed a spearfisher who looked a bit lost, and it turned out to be his morning catch. I think we made his day.
