This was a very special encounter with a beautiful eagle ray sifting through the sand for a tasty meal. As bottom feeders, eagle rays hunt for prey on the seafloor. Like stingrays, their mouths are on the underside of their bodies. However, they also have a protruding snout full of electro-sensory pores that work as a kind of food radar. Eagle rays are carnivores with specialized flat teeth designed for grinding and crushing crustaceans and molluscs. However, they aren't fussy eaters and will also chow down on worms, small fish and even octopuses.

Ebbene sì. Oggi è lunedì. Quindi riprende la settimana, riprende il lavoro e riprendono le chiamate con i clienti. Dopo una giornata produttiva e piena di buone notizie lavorative, prendiamo il gommone e andiamo a fare un bagno. Planiamo a 20 nodi verso una spiaggia bianca e fine fine, ormeggiamo il gommone tirandolo sulla spiaggia e ci tuffiamo. Che mondo laggiù e che vita! Pesci di tutti i tipi! Eravamo abituati a occhiate e pesciolini, qui abbiamo colori, dimensioni e forme incredibili. Ci divertiamo a scoprire i fondali della baia subito sud di dove siamo ormeggiati e torniamo a preparare cena. Un lunedì ordinario di una vita straordinaria. Buon lavoro a tutti, -4 al weekend! Andrea
