Mantas

The secret hidden manta viewing spot was finally located here at Bora Bora. The first day it was raining, and the mantas were out in force. We found a group of four. They are distinctly different that the ones that we saw in the Marqueses.

These have the same large flipper fins that help guide more plankton into their gaping mouths, but when they are not feeding they roll these flipper fins into two horns protruding from their head. The also have white shading on their top, and a tiny fin down by their tails. Rumor has it these are Devil Manta Rays because of their horns. All great stuff!!!

Soon we will be heading to the seahorse hideout to see what is there. (We are thinking seahorses!!) Then it is off to the stingray and shark feeding station!!!

Life is tough out here, but somehow we are managing!!!

Courage
