Manta Ray

II promised to share stills of the very short video Pat made of the manta ray that swam so close to them.  He did what they call a belly roll.  Swimming by then turning over exposing their underside.  Like whale flukes, their bellies have distinct markings that allow tracking and naming of the Rays.  If you submit a clear belly shot that has not been identified, you get to name it!  I already had a goat named after me by my brother Dan!  




Here is a better shot of the line they held on to keep their face in the water.
