It was such a nice day that I had to do a second dive somewhere. I decided on a solo dive at St Leonards Pier and it was nice and peaceful until a big boat was manoeuvring around and stirred up the bottom.

I got some photos I was happy with. There were some shrimp that were keen to be photographed and a wandering sea anemone which is closed during the day but opens up to feed at night. I got a nice photo of a Tasmanian blenny and some of the native fan worms on the pier pylons.

There were some fish out toward the end of the pier, a few female blue throat wrasse and a school of aboout 20 zebra fish and, of course, the ubiquitous globe fish with some in a small group like a family.

Nice and relaxing dive, have to get back to see those anemones.
