Trumpetfish

Trumpetfish

It’s me again, boy did that Sunday go by fast or what??  After my long hike this morning with the dogs I started building some driftwood pieces.  I have a few orders now which helps to motivate me in the right direction.  Every single time we go the beach we cart wood home and just keep stacking it in piles, I really need to start getting this stuff turned into useable items.  So I spent a good part of the afternoon creating a big towel holder which holds 5 towels and finally got a little more work done on the big table we have downstairs all made from wood from Saint Joris.
 
Someone asked me weeks ago for a Trumpetfish photo, I don’t even remember who now?  I found this yellow beauty out on our reef a few days ago.  These trumpetfish position themselves straight up and down and try to blend in with their surroundings but little does he know he’s bright yellow and stood out like a sore thumb!  These guys are also incredible hunters, they just hover above unsuspecting smaller fish and wait for the perfect moment to strike and they are fast!
 
That’s it for tonight sorry nothing exciting!!  Be back tomorrow, Bye Barry
