Also known as the Scorpionfish, or even a Hawaiian Turkeyfish. This one is another resident of the Maui Ocean Center, but we really did see some of these in Kapalua Bay. In fact, we saw a lot of fish in Kapalua Bay – many more than we saw at the reefs off of Lanai’i during our snorkel trip there. Of course, we did actually see reef sharks and green sea turtles, the latter up close and personal, on the snorkel trip…
Very cool photographs … glad to see that you are having fun. btw, we haven’t forgotten you at bayportalameda.org as this post indicates 🙂

Cheers!
Thanks, for the kind comment about the photos and the reminder that I meant to add the forum link to the Miscellaneous section in the left column a long time ago and forgot. It is there now, and I signed up for the forum too so I can post comments there now 🙂
Scary looking fish – swim away! 🙂
