This dive is called “Menagerie” due to the vast quantities and types of fish and other animals that school in the area.  True to its name, this is probably the most diverse dive of the trip so far.  It’s hard to get close enough to the fish with my wide-angle lens for them to show up as anything more than a small speck in the picture.  I did have a lot of fun trying to see how close I could get to them before they swam away and hopefully get my picture! By the end of the dive I had partially given up and just started shoving my camera down into holes and inside foliage just to see what would happen. On our ascent to the surface a small school of silvery fish started to hang around and even followed Jason up to the boat! We were all hanging out at the surface on the boat talking about the dive and eating watermelon when everyone started tossing their watermelon rinds overboard.  The silver fish went crazy fighting over the melon… which is the reason they were hanging out right below the boat! That kept us all entertained for longer than I care to admit.
