This morning, we encountered a spotted eagle ray, that was feeding in sandy rubble at a depth of 15 to 20 feet, twice. This is one of the biggest fish that we regularly see on our dives here. Its wingspan was between 4 and 5 feet. They are graceful animals as they soar through the water, and they create clouds of sand when they stop to dig up invertebrates in the sand.
