Thrills at Ningaloo
Diving with enormous whale sharks at Ningaloo in Western Australia. This slow-moving monster of the sea can reach a length of 18.8 metres, a weight of 34 tonnes.
Thumbs up from my granddaughters swimming out to see the whale shark in the distance.

WHAT IS A WHALE SHARK — are they dangerous?
The whale shark is the third biggest creature in the ocean. They are filter feeders not hunters, not aggressive and don’t threaten humans who can swim right next to them. Their tiny teeth are not used for biting down on food instead the whale shark strains minute planktonic organisms from the water through the gills by a fine mesh of gill rakers. The whale shark has a peaceful nature and a diet of microscopic plankton and small ocean nekton.

Returning from a wonderful day at sea. Should you wish to know more, google Ningaloo whale shark experience in Exmouth, Western Australia. |

A white star born in the evening glow Looked to the round green world below, And saw a pool in a wooded place That held like a jewel her mirrored face. She said to the pool: "Oh, wondrous deep, I love you, I give you my light to keep. Oh, more profound than the moving sea That never has shown myself to me! Oh, fathomless as the sky is far, Hold forever your tremulous star!"
But out of the woods as night grew cool A brown pig came to the little pool; It grunted and splashed and waded in And the deepest place but reached its chin. The water gurgled with tender glee And the mud churned up in it turbidly. The star grew pale and hid her face In a bit of floating cloud like lace. |
