 Southern Stingrays Good evening friends, boy did we ever have a busy day at Dolphin Academy!! Today was as busy as it gets, we were pretty much fully booked on all swims and encounters all day. The hardest part of the day was dealing with the gale force winds and monster waves that rolled in every second of the day, it made taking pictures very entertaining! I always get a big kick out of watching our guests jump into the lagoons for a dolphin swim with the waves crashing over the rocks, the rocks stop the waves but it’s still pretty rough in there, they were real troopers today!!
Here’s some more Stingrays for you all this evening, something I get a lot of requests for but never seem to take the time to shoot. There are four Southern Stingrays in this photo. One is at the bottom of the photo buried under the sand, the other three are swimming around. Remember a few weeks back I sent you a photo of just the eye of a stingray? Well the one buried in the sand was my model, he figured he was well enough hidden that I couldn’t see him, boy was he wrong! These big rays love to cover themselves in sand and sometimes the only thing showing is their eyes, its really cool. This was shot inside our one and only Animal Encounters at the Curacao Sea Aquarium, you can also see the big antique ships anchor laying in the sand in the background and we also have old canons as well.
Aimee and I are both off tomorrow but I have to work Christmas and the day after, yes it kind of stinks but they give us extra pay for working holidays. That’s it for my day, I hear South Dakota is bracing itself for a big winter storm, send us photos!! Be back tomorrow, Barry
