Creature of the day:  Green Moray


Well, we were looking down on him from at least twenty feet, so he looked more like an old tire.  He was lying in the sand, right under the speedway for boats, snorkelers, and divers.  It's the first time we've seen a moray eel completely out in the open.  Usually you just see the head snaking out of its hole.


Today went diving in the same spot, and saw two morays- two!  entire morays! chasing each other, in & out of crevasses.  AND they were five feet from me.  I decide the morays here are quite forward, compared to the shy ones in Utila.
