More Lorikeets

I have a lot of lorikeets pictures because I think they're so colorful and they've been fun to photograph.

More Fishy Stuff

I wish you could have seen these lobsters and how big they were. Let me put it this way. You know those tanks where you can pick your lobster. One of these would have barely fit in one of those tanks....and it would have easily climbed out.




And I don't know what the ones are below. I just liked the pictures. :-)





And I think we all know this is a stingray. Man, this thing was huge. I'm sure it was easily 4-5 feet long not include that tail.

Little Fishies

I went back to the Long Beach Aquarium trying to work with my camera a little more and get some better shots than the last time. I still have some work to do in figuring out some settings and why I mess up so many shots!!! Urrrggghhh! LOL!

A Whatcha-ma-callit

I need to pay more attention to what I'm taking pics of and/or not think I can always rely on my memory. I don't remember what this thing is but one of them seemed to have gotten stuck between a rock and the glass of the tank it was in. Perfect opportunity to view its underbelly.

MORE FISHY STUFF

I haven't posted anything in a while. I haven't been anywhere to take pictures so I'll continue with some pictures from the Long Beach Aquarium. They're not perfect but I think they're worth sharing.

This is, let me see if I can remember what it was... a leafy seahorse? No, a Leafy Sea Dragon.




And... a starfish that was plastered against the window allowing perfect viewing of it's belly:



This sea turtle was as long as I was tall swimming back and forth across the huge tank:



I lucked up and was right on time to see a diver in one of the huge tanks. One of the guides in the crowd was actually carrying on a conversation with her. I wasn't paying any attention to what they were talking about (smile):

JELLYFISH - Part 2

LORIKEETS

I went to the Long Beach Aquarium today. I'm really disappointed with my pics of the fish. Taking them through the glass was a challenge (frown). I've still got to browse through and pic out some good ones but I thought I'd start with the pics of the Lorikeets they had there. They were enclosed in this large aviary you walked into and there was a ton of mist so I'm glad I was wearing my wig (smile). For $2 you could buy...oh, I forget what it was but it was something sweet in a little cup and the birds would come right up on your hand and drink it. They were the prettiest birds!
