On sunday at wello (apart from the sharks) there were stacks of what I first thought were bluebottles but on inspection were odd shaped things with no stinger. I've never seen anything like them before, juvenille blue bottles maybe?

Ah yuck. Exactly what Reddy is like.
Coming out from the Shorncliffe boat launching thing the jellies are so thick there, I was TERRIFIED if I fell off the ski loL! hhaha actually really scarry

But I was at Wello on Monday, and I saw 3 stingrays (Would have been Diagonally 40cm) and in not even 1m deep water!
Had JUST swum my dog >German Shephard X Grey Hound< in the water there, and about 2min later the 3 of them appeared!!! It was on the TOP of the water to, contrary to what we usually see is them on the bottom! Called the marine thing to see if it was sick or why and yes, they do that in more shallow water!
It then move further underwater as it move out towards Straddy (came from manly direction on high tide)

Just keep eyes open i guess for a lot of things!

love the casual discounting of sharks. Its as if paw paw not only fixes stings but makes your limbs grow back.

Lotys of blue bottles at Scotts Point sunday also, small blue tea bag things with a small sail on the top. Lots on beach but none in water as was out all arvo and didn't get stung. Not seen them there before.

It wasn't in moreton bay, but today out near Gladstone I saw something that looked very much like a crocodile by the way it swam. The next gybe was very very careful, and one minute later I was on dry land...

Still have goosebumps!

Just visiting... (and cutting my feet up on the oysters )
