Blue Heron Bridge is a Muck dive of the Intercoastal waterway in Palm Beach shores. Lots of creatures migrate using the Gulfstream current and stop here to mate and feed. It is a great for any king of underwater photography. During the winter we have seen flabellinas mating and at the begining of May frog fish are coming back in April we saw baby octopus getting bigger. In October families of Manatees came by. In september we saw schools of spotted eagles...Seahorses all year round. This site is magical and you better open your eyes because you never know what u are going to find. The access point is from shore at the beach but divers can also get dropped off by boat. Is best to dive one hr before hight tide since when the tide turns the current is very strong specially close to full and new moon and the water turns to liquid mud.

An issue, sometimes, with diving at BHB, is that it can be difficult to get the banded coral shrimp and yellowline arrow crabs to stay out of the way. . .

Not the most colorful of seahorses, but a spot or two of color here and there.

I fumbled around in a panic when he yawned (belched?) and only got one shot off. I'd *still* love to shoot a sailfin blenny some day, but nobody'll show me one. . . :-)

They seem to generally be shy about showing their pretty "suckers". . .

Oddly, ran across this guy on the same dive as with the pink one - the only dive at the bridge on which I've found *any* froggies.

Might he have thought that he was wearing his orange outfit?

These guys seem to never stop moving. . .

I must have spent 45 minutes waiting for the eggs to show up, but if they're in there, I couldn't see em. Managed to also get some video of him doing some housekeeping, too. How can he be spitting sand if he's keeping eggs in there??

The jellies have been an issue of late. Seems the only times I've seen these things with their mouths open has been when they're vacuuming up injured jellyfish.

This creature was oblivious to me for the 45 minutes or so that I spent with my port within a few inches of him as he worked away on his hole in the sand.

Do you know what time it is??

He went for me, but all he got was a mouthful of algae. . .

Running low on new shots. Need to get back in the water. Don't even have a car wreck for an excuse. :-)

by Kevin Bryant
Twice ran across plumed scorpionfish on my last journey to the bridge. Had never seen them and was all excited about finding some big frogfish walking on the bottom. But, alas, these guys also walk. Still, pretty cool to this rookie. :-)

---

by Kevin Bryant
Slim pickings at the bridge this weekend. Tried the north side of the east "little" bridge at low tide. Right spooky with the bad viz and serious current for most of the dive.
