Mass Migration of Stingrays

Amazing shots. Wallpaper material..

 

Woah! Should of caught a few as pets!

 

RIP Steve Irwin

 

How long does it take for 'em to get to Santa Barbara? Used to pick 'em up & say "hello" there.

 

Cool! I remember when a buddy flew me out to Catalina on a small plane. You could look down and see giant Mantas near a lot of the boats, with a span much larger than the beams. Awesome to see.

 

Those look a lot like cow-nosed rays, had some in a "touch pool" at the aquarium where I worked. They were some of the friendliest little critters, really enjoyed attention from humans. We kept their barbs trimmed just to be sure nobody got hurt. I've seen large mantas when I've been in a small boat. Pretty awesome sight but they don't seem too interested in us.

 

amazing photos! Ive got footage of me chasing and touching some schools of them here in aust in about 3-4ft of water off brisbane. similar looking ray, but more of a grey... fascinating to see so many together at once...

 

Wow! At the risk of sounding creepy, I'm going to say that they're such CUTE little creatures!

 

Cool pics. Very escher-esque...

science fiction writers could not make a more surrealistic scene.

 

Wow...amazing.

I wouldn't want to fall in the water though...

 

Eagle rays not the same kind that Irwin was playing with. They are shy of man when I have been around them. I must admit not that many. I have seen 3 at a time but nothing like that.

 

No kidding, it has the makings of a really cheesy Sci-Fi Channel movie to the week.

 

Mexico waters? I guess every creature is running from the Swine flu...
