9/3/2010 - Big D Iris-palooza

La Jolla Shores has been INVADED this week by D. iris. I don't mean 10, or 50...Oh No!
I mean several hundred, perhaps 1,000's over a sq area at least 200'. Crazy numbers.


And these critters were not just satisfied to be terra-firm.  Oh No,  they went 'waterborne'. It was like it was raining iris's. Crazy.


At any point during the dive I had a minimum of 5 iris within arms reach. Frick'n everywhere.


Along side the iris invasion was an army of Aeolidia papillosa. Hundred's of these guys as well.

Fricken Crazy I tell ya.

Got some good pics of the swimmers (I love LR3)

Thanks T and Marla for another sweet dive, and a perfect cup 'o coffee afterward :)
