I wet myself

A Whitetip Reef Shark zips close by. This week’s Sunday Stills challenge theme is ‘Scary Animal of the Month.’ See more responses here. I’ve dipped into the archives for this one, which is mostly water shots. What else did you think I meant by the headline? Captions on the photos as usual. A Devil’s Scorpionfish has poisonous spines and flashes colorful fins to warn off predators. Great Barracudas still give me the willies sometimes. They just look mean! They’re big and scary-looking, but Manta Rays are gentle giants. And finally, for all you arachnophobes, a lovely Cane Spider.
