A Sea Turtle picture a day # 64


Welcome back to A Sea Turtle Picture A Day. Today we are heading back underwater and over to the west side of the Big Island of Hawaii. This picture is of a Green Sea Turtle(Chelonia mydas) that has a few cleaner fish eating the algae off of its body. This is normal behaviour the turtle gets its shell and body cleaned of algae and the fish get a snack.

This picture was taken with a 12-24 mm lens

See you tomorrow
