Steve Douglas 16 Posted November 26, 2012 Nice Mike. Filmed them mating, guarding eggs, showing off but never really feeding. Enjoyed that I did. Steve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SimonSpear 65 Posted December 6, 2012 To get that many predation shots takes a lot of time, a great understanding of behaviour and a fair helping of that magic ingredient - luck! Great stuff Mike. Last time I was at Lembeh I sat by a Frogfish for nearly 6 hours and didn't get anything apart from the odd yawn!! Cheers, Simon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick Hope 151 Posted December 7, 2012 6 hours! Maybe it was a sponge. What did you breathe? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SimonSpear 65 Posted December 7, 2012 Not on a single dive Nick(!), but yes I have filmed a sponge in the past before realising that it wasn't a Froggy.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikeVeitch 0 Posted December 8, 2012 you can't do 6 hours Simon?!? lightweight.. Thanks, yes, it does take patience that is for sure, as well as luck, that Octopus I still haven't figured out what it pounced on.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
