Our Last Dive in FL: photos!

We are preparing to head back north, to our boat in Annapolis. Before we do that, though, we wanted to get in one last dive at the Blue Heron Bridge here. It was a beautiful day. The water was warm, there was lots of sea life tooling around, the sun was out, and visibility was good. Also, we remembered to bring our underwater camera. Thia volunteered to be our photographer, below are some of the better shots she got. In some, it looks like a photo of sand, but can you find the camouflaged creature? Some were better at it than others.

Sea star!

Lots of fish!

Can you find the flounder? It is not at the bottom of the photo.

Thia said this guy kept following her camera, he was ready for his close-up.

This conch left a trail.

Large boulders, teeming with sea life.

I can't remember if there is anything hidden in this one. Do you see anything?


Let me take a selfie!

A fat sea star.




Lots of dive flags = lots of divers.


Some of the not-so-camouflaged creatures. Time to get out the identification resources.

Under the bridge, it got a little spooky.

Taking a surface break to check in with everyone, and monitor our air.


Do you see the jellyfish? No stings on these, they were just weird blobs.

Right by that elbow is a creature that looks like a floating sand blob.

The conch inside the shell. Notice how bright the colors underneath are, on top, it looks like a lump of sand!

This creature was leaving a trail of his own.

Camouflage level 4.
