This multiband butterflyfish was cruising past the top of a head of coral. The dark stripe through its eye is a feature seen on many fish species, helping to confuse predators.

what a great fish . . . I’ve only been snorkling twice. Once was amazing the other time, well I got a bit too close to the coral thanks to a low tide. not great!

Yes, it’s not good for either party getting too close to coral. Given my propensity for running into things and accidentally cutting myself, I’m amazed I haven’t done myself more harm when I go swimming.

Thank goodness for lime juice is all I can say, as one foot was not looking great!

Handsome looking fish, Graham! The water looks wonderfully inviting, been warm here of late!

Alas, I haven’t been in the water for two weeks or more. A combination of the parks being closed (We’re allowed to swim, but not allowed to get to the water!) and a series of swells that make for poor conditions.
