Sergeant Major (type of damselfish)

Iris is back! You may remember her from last year as our Casa de los Viajeros guest that shot the wonderful bird photos in our garden that you can see here.

Southern Stingray

This year Iris got a new underwater camera and she has been nice enough to share more of her beautiful photos with us. She also identified all the fish for us! These pictures were taken this winter at our reef and at the small cenote which is located just offshore in front of Ojo de Agua. Iris took them while snorkelling. It is amazing what you can see just from the surface of the water.
