First morning light?
Good morning all!

I think it have to be something else, because it is gone.
And it is still (also) raining here.

Nobody there? Oke, I'am off again, perhaps till later!

Good Morning Irma, looks like it could be the moon in your pic. The rain has finally let up, and our basement is drying out. Can't wait to give the builder my opinion !

First Fish! (though dark)

Nice colours this morning.

This one just missed.

SunShine!
Is that a squid or jelly in the bottom left corner??

Looks like jellies in the water.

I'm off to the gym. Have a great morning! I'll probably pop back in later, I'm going diving in the afternoon! WooHoo!

Archive Pics! Where is everybody? Lots of jellies today too.

All our gear is packed for this afternoon! Woohoo!

I am sure that the jellies came here this time last year. Annie B.

Hello Annie B!

I am leaving now, Have a great day Annie B! We are going to my parents and then we are off for our first dive of the year! Have my underwater camera ready too!
Have a great day everyone!

Enjoy your dive Eileen. Come back and tell us all about it. Hope you got the flooding sorted last night. Annie B.

There's lots of jellies.

Someone going in, maybe?

wow, attack of the jellies! i haven't seen them hang around like this before! must be a current and is carrying them along!

Hi Cyndylou. More jellies.

Hello Cynde. Had to do this one in big, or you would never spot Charlotte on the left. Annie B.

good one annie! here are some more...bet jake is glad he got rid of harry a couple of days ago, and doesn't have to get in the water now!

yet another...

Wow Annie and Cynde. Someone's organized a Jellyfish convention and didn't invite us :-( ... Cindy

They sure are hanging around ...

cindy, if i had been invited, i think i would have had to pass...don't like the stinging buggers! i remember them on the cams before, but the water must really be nutrient with them hanging around, either that or there are a lot of them being carried by the current...jellies do migrate toward the light where there is more likely a food source during the day as well...at the ocean institute where i volunteer, we have a moon jelly exhibit, stages from ephera all the way to the medusa stage. they are really pretty to watch in the circulation tank floating but that is as close as i like to get to them!


here are two more...that second pic, he is hanging on the surface!

and ANOTHER! Jake, get in the water NOW with your camera!

here's jo...

boy, i imagine this is pretty cool on the live feed...

Cynde. The jellies are pretty to see on the cam though. I remember seeing them on Bon about this time last year. Annie B.

Cynde. Could you repost?

When we were in Bonaire this year, we saw more than I recall seeing in previous years. I did capture a few with the camera.

aren't they though annie! i really need to get my tush in gear now and get some work done!

cindy..repost? i would love to see the jelly pics!

Here's one I photographed at Bloodlet on March 24 this year.....



And me too, need to get some productive work done!

WOW! that is a fabulous shot! i can't tell, do they have stinging tentacles hanging down?

Cindylou. Great picture.
Here's the pic I got when they were on Bon last year. They are the same spot wing jellies aren't they? Annie B.

I'm not much of an expert (not at all actually) on them. I just tried to get as close as I could. I found them a bit tricky to catch with the camera.

wow annie, great pic! i remembered seeing them, maybe i wasn't watching them for a log period of time...either that or i CRS anymore!

gmta cindy! i can see that you are as hot on your errands as i am!

Okay..... I'm going to have to admit I don't know what GMTA is ... dah? Help!

cindy, great minds think alike

For the most part they all appear to be spot wing comb jellies - they don't have stinging cells. Not sure about the ones on which you can't see spots though - the spots tend to be algae concentrations, so maybe they are spot wing jellies without so much algae?

Jake

Thanks Cynde

Here be a diver ...

Cindylou. And here be some that got missed. LOL Annie B.

Special delivery??

thanks jake...the big ones without the spots must not be quite so full glad to know they don't sting back from running errands...which i really don't like much, especially around here...folks too busy talking on their cell phones to pay attention to where they are going!


jo...

annie, thanks for catching the truck...i saved it and forgot about it...short term memory problems today me thinks! maybe that is jake's video games he ordred...for research...;-)

charlotte...now i must get to the cleaning...sigh..

Me too Cynde. Well, actually, I just got my working garb on and I'm going to waterseal the deck. Fun WOW! BBL.

Cynde. If these are Tarpon, then they are a right bunch of Charlies. LOL. Refer to Critter guide. Annie B.

wow annie, i just saw that on the cc thread...they deserve a big pic!


and satch...

And before I go, I think maybe we should start a new thread. This one's been jelly-wonderful but it's kinda long? See you over there...Cindy

See you on the flip side girlies. AnnieB.

annie, had to go look to see on the cam dwellers page to see if they had that tarpons school during the day just like our kids do! oh, they can inhabit a reef area for years...don't have that info on there...maybe martine can add that....there has been soooo much action on the cams today i'm having a hard time staying on task with my chores!
