Flyin' High with the Smoothtail Ray - Catching Air in Baja California!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. Get ready to be amazed by this incredible shot captured by Mark Carwardine! Our smoothtail ray, also known as Mobula thurstoni, is taking flight out of the crystal-clear waters of Baja California. This acrobatic marvel showcases the playful nature and boundless energy of these magnificent creatures. Leaping gracefully into the air, our smoothtail ray defies gravity with a breathtaking display that leaves us all in awe. Its sleek body glistens under the warm Mexican sun as it soars through the sky above the Sea of Cortez (Gulf of California). With its fins spread wide like wings, it seems almost impossible that such a graceful creature could exist beneath those waves. This extraordinary behavior reminds us just how diverse and fascinating marine life can be. From cetaceans to tropical fish, our oceans are teeming with vibrant vertebrates that never cease to amaze us. And here we have our very own superstar - the smoothtail ray! So next time you find yourself near Baja California's shores, keep an eye out for these mesmerizing rays putting on their aerial show. It's a sight you won't want to miss! And thanks to Mark Carwardine's stunning photography skills, we can now enjoy this exhilarating moment forever captured in print.
