Hanging overhead in this part of the gallery is a model of a sea turtle.
Life in the great depths of the ocean is examined as well.
I like getting this perspective shot through the skeleton of the blue whale.
Arthropods can be found throughout the world's oceans, a vastly diverse group of animals.
A display recreating a deep sea vent is found here, with life that is quite alien to our eyes.
A panel and life sized model looks at an ungainly fish- the Common Mola.
Here we see more arthropods.
And invertebrates of the seas- including starfish.
I find under the sea is amazing but at you say a little alien to our eyes.
ReplyDeleteIndeed.
DeleteLove the sea turtle in the first pic
ReplyDeleteMe too.
DeleteLife is a wonder. Sad how "we"/some of us treat it.
ReplyDeleteI agree.
DeleteThe unknown world.
ReplyDeleteVery much so.
DeleteIt is amazing when we see creatures from the deep, probably a lot more down there that no one has seen yet.
ReplyDeleteTrue.
DeleteLife at depths is remarkable.
ReplyDeleteThat it is.
DeleteWonderful views of the sea creatures. I love the sea turtle. Take care, enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteImagine what it’s like to be a sea turtle whose living space is polluted more each day and the beaches where it lays its eggs are filled with humans slathering on sunblock while they drink their pina coladas. Oh, and they leave trash behind too and that makes it’s way to the ocean, and…….
ReplyDeleteTrue.
DeleteNice shot of the skeleton of the blue whale.
ReplyDeleteIt's a strange and mysterious world down there.
Indeed.
DeleteBuenas especies marinas y vegetales hay en esas vitrinas, para el conocimiento de las gentes que vayan a visitarla.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteImpressive...
ReplyDeleteI think so.
Delete...looking through the skeleton of the blue whale is neat.
ReplyDeleteIt's different.
DeleteSo many treasures under the sea!
ReplyDeleteThere are.
DeleteGreat to see a collection of under-the-sea brought up to our viewpoint.
ReplyDeleteIndeed.
DeleteThat Common Mola is certainly unusual.
ReplyDeleteIt is.
DeleteI saw lots of these things recently in California.
ReplyDeleteQuite a trip.
DeleteHow I have wished to see a sea turtle on a beach…no luck!
ReplyDeleteI doubt I ever will.
DeleteI like the sea turtle model.
