May, the month of my birthday and a sea of gifts from the love of my heart, the big blue in the Bat Galim reef in Haifa.
On Sunday morning (19/5/24) a new surprise awaited me when I dived - a sharp nosed trigon that passed on the bottom suddenly changed direction and started chasing me. I was really scared and tried to run away from him. It turns out that during the breeding season the males are very jealous of the females and I probably didn't notice that there was a female around (except me). That's why he came to run me away and did an excellent job, I definitely ran away.

An annular ring
Then I saw a beautiful ringed hawk from above and dived to take a picture of it. A ringed hawk is a tiny creature and you can miss it very easily - it is the size of a pinky, a "pitch".
The hazarit is a beautiful invader that comes from the Red Sea which is found mainly on rocky beaches and feeds on sponges.

Place the wall Bertha
As I continued to swim, I met the brown turtle Berta who came to wish me good luck and we elegantly nibbled on her from the bottom. Sweet Bertha is always calm.

As I started to swim towards the shore, I was stopped by a tiny octopus, who peeked out of his house and greeted me.

The beta family
The beta family is starting to arrive and they are waiting for the females to start breeding because this is the breeding season and soon I might get to see some pregnancies.
Trigon is a huge and spectacular point
Last week (12/5/24) I met a huge and beautiful trigon point, what an amazing creature.

The warning combs
The warning combs complete the celebration with their bright stripes in the colors of the rainbow. I saw a really big one, about the size of my palm. They are left alone in the water, as well as barely threadbare, until the summer swarm arrives.

I will continue to share the magic - a bubble of escapism and a sea of sanity.
