Loved the photo's especially the Jellyfish that has all the lights on them. I've seen those before at the Point Defiance Aquarium has soothing music next to the window and I swear I could have sat there all day watching them because of the beautiful movements to music and watch them flicker with lights.

Jenny, I forgot about the music. IThe room was filled with a soft New Age sound, and yes, that really helped the ambience. I'm glad this is up at the top again because I've been nagging Beth to post her pictures. I don't know what that woman does with her time. :twisted: :lol:

Great pictures !
I think Jellyfish are such fasinating creatures !! I don't want to be in the water with them, but I like to see them. I bet the music was a great touch :D
Really nice - thanks !

Sparkle's jellyfish pics turned out better than mine, I think - but I'll start off with a few of mine - after I get more of my pics on photobucket, will post some more of the story - maybe Sparkle can start that off, too?

Speaking of jellyfish, has anyone seen the new Will Smith "Seven Pounds"? I'm not going to give the plot away but jellyfish play an important role.

No, haven't seem the movie, Kelpie. Do you recommend it?
This is Beth's favorite bird. A Roseate Spoonbill.

The Dolphin display was hard to photograph because I couldn't see anything on my screen. It was a case of point and shoot, hopefully in the right direction. I had to delete many photos of just a splash.

Not for the squeamish. These baby alligators were fed with defrosted mmice. This one was so full he couldn't swallow the last one.

A face only a Mommy fish could love. Or somebody with a good appetite?

Did you get any bird photos Beth? Oh, while I was posting Beth was posting the same photos!!!! :roll:

Yes, I have some bird photos- but they aren't on photobucket yet - it's been taking forever tonight to upload pics - so will have to get to them later or tomorrow - at least we only doubled up on the gators :)

I do recommend the movie. It's not like my son said "the best movie ever" but it is thought provoking. I like those sometimes.
