Monterey pics 5-11

[Larry C]

Here are some pics from this month's dives. Conditions have been kind of sucky, but we've had some good dives anyway. Here's the evidence.

Cadlina Flavomaculata

Juvenile Bull Sculpin

Dendronotus Iris munching on a tube anemone

Permanent dive buddy Carol with a Sunflower star and a few Metridium anemones.

Typical Monterey scene: Bat star, Dendronotus diversicolor, Sunflower star, Tube anemone and a San Diego dorid, all within touching distance. There are probably a half dozen crabs and such hiding in there, too.

Male Kelp Greenling

School of Blue rockfish

Couple of Copper Rockfish

Local couple Fred and Ethel Wolf eel observing a Juvenile Blue Rockfish who's been hanging out in their hole.

Will do, Brian. He didn't dive today, but I'm sure I'll see him in the next week or two.

That pic of the juvenile Sculpin is nothing short of sensational!
