Hypselodoris tryoni, a common nudibranch in the West Pacific Ocean and like most nudibranch feed on sponges. Nudibranchs are truly the prettiest gastropods (maybe some bias) and are always intriguing to divers. It was nice to see one and sometimes these nudibranchs are seen on the sponge or hydorid that it is eating. It last dive of that day after all the excitement at Sipadan with Great Hammerhead Shark and deep blue.

My second time seeing a Pygmy Seahorse (Hippocampus bargibanti), first time I saw one at Tulamben and now this second one at Seaventure House Reef :) thank you to the dive guides for spotting it and letting us know. The Pygmy Seahorse was camouflaging among this large gorgonian coral with its pink tubercules matching the host gorgonian colours. It grows about to about average size 1.4-2.7cm hence the name.

My old tg5 and housing etc had 99 problems but at least it worked this time😅

Red-headed Krait (Bungarus flaviceps) one of the highly venomous elapid snake that has awesome striking colouration. Red-headed kraits are nocturnal, semi-aquatic and inhabits rain forests in mountainous and hilly regions.

First time road cruising and our guide Steven spotted this beauty. Honestly, I was fighting not to fall asleep in the car, but that moment and their excitement woke me up. Good memory for our first road cruising :)

Lots of things are hard, Callum. Like magic. But you figured that out, didn't you? Yeah. Somehow, relationships seem harder.

My first night dive at Juara Tioman area at the JSA house reef 'Aquarium' :) back in May. I definitely have a hard time IDing squids 🐙, probably a species of reef squid from genus Sepioteuthis. If you look closely, the little black pigment spots are chromatophores that aid in their camouflage. Chromatophores are skin color cells that can expand or retract to show different levels of color, reef squids and many other cephalopods can change their colors and patterns extremely rapidly.

( Insert Audio: I hate him, he's the one that took my mother. Oh. Looking at him, seeing him)

I really love this scene between Rayla & Callum talking about Avizandum & the cycle of Hatred.

Scene from Season 3 Episode 6: Thunderfall.

Green Turtle (Chelonia mydas) 🐢

Honestly throughout my scuba diving journey, I haven't seen green turtles while diving, only hawksbill until my most recent dive trip. I got to see a total of 3 green turtles underwater and it was cool experience:) A bonus nesting mother out of water as well. 4 green turtles on the trip:) Omnivorous when they are juveniles and move more into a herbivorous diet of seagrass and algae as adults.

Superb Fairywren (Malurus cyaneus) it was one of the most common birds seen during the trip. The best photos of the males in breeding plumage were seen at Tower Hill, had fun time seeing them fequently pop in and out of the shrubs onto the path. These birds mostly forage on the ground or low shrub areas for insects and supplement their diet with small seeds and fruits.

A Malayan Colugo/Flying Lemur enjoying its leafy🍃 meal. Colugos have excessive skin membrane extending all around the body, stretching to the tips of its long limbs and across its tail. This feature enables it to glide long distances between trees. Hence, the name flying lemur.
