I only saw a couple of these during my entire time diving in the PNW, but the baby Red Rock Crabs look very different from the adults…
Though I never managed to get a photo I was truly happy with, any time I saw a Pacific Spiny Lumpsucker (Eumicrotremus orbis) it was a treat. These little fish (about 1-3 inches long) are just so cute even though they are armoured with those…
In case you’re curious how this is “part 3” of my Rocky Mountain National Park posts, I realized I didn’t label the previous ones as RMNP, so I went back and changed them. If you’re curious, they were the Moose Mother and Calf and the…
Ok – starting today I am going to make Fridays a day when I will just post 10 random photos with no descriptions or back-story… I’ve got way too many photos sitting in my archives just waiting to see the light of day because I…
It is not easy to photograph really tall trees… I decided to try some vertical panoramic shots to see if that would work…
The next installment in The Eyes Have It series is a Red Irish Lord (Hemilepidotus hemilepidotus) photographed in the Hood Canal portion of Puget Sound.

During a dive at the Blue Heron Bridge, I would usually find the Bumblebee Shrimp under these Purple Urchins, and not a ton of critters eat urchins, so I was surprised to find this crab walking around trying to munch on this one…
Along with Giant Pacific Octopus, I got to see Pacific Red Octopus (Octopus rubescens) while diving in the Pacific North West. On a dive on Thanksgiving, we had hoped to find some Stubby Squid which had been spotted at this same dive site, so when…
During a visit to Green Cay Wetlands in Boyton Beach, Florida, I happened to find this Black Necked Stilt with its youngsters foraging in the wetland…
