Monterey Bay Aquarium - July 10, 2023


Suspended fiberglass whale and baby.

Spinning fish, almost all of which are heading to the left.  The fish at the bottom is heading the opposite direction.  The kids called that fish a freethinker.

Cool-looking jellyfish galore.

Green sea turtle and manta ray, plus dolphinfish.

Anchovies spin, and spin.

Spin, anchovies, spin.

Dolphinfish, yellow tuna, green sea turtle, and a hammerhead shark or two, suspended in space.

Crabs, an oceanic delicacy, are safe for the moment at the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

A demonstrative puffin, plus a couple of murres, splash in the water.

Seaside, CA, as seen from Monterey, CA.

Looking from the aquarium across Monterey Bay towards Santa Cruz, CA.

Abalone shells.

Touchable sea urchins don't want to touch each other, or touch people, and just want to be somewhere else.

Hermit crabs scurrying across palms in order not to touch anyone.

Pipes in the ceiling, and touchable aquarium guests who don't want to be photographed and look like maybe they just want to be somewhere else.

Rachel looks for the Leopard Shark.

Leopard Shark!

Just look up.

California Moray Eel says, "OK, I'll just look up."

Penguins.

Penguins like the water.

Sea anemone.

Interesting-looking boat in shallow water near the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

Deep-sea coral.

Display of a deep-sea submersible touching down.

Waving red fronds shimmer and quake.

Touchable Isopods just want to be somewhere else.
