White Leaf Scorpionfish
Another interesting find this weekend was this large, pale leaf scorpionfish (Taenianotus triacanthus) sitting out in the open in the shallows. These are often tucked into crevices during the daylight hours, so to find one out in the open was a nice surprise.
These fish will sway back and forth in the surge, mimicking the movement of a fallen leaf in the water.
