I would have called this a Cuttlefish, but thanks to tornicoqui I now know that people in the Caribbean call it a Caribbean Reef Squid (Sepioteuthis sepioidea). Anyway, I think they are gorgeous as well as interesting - always changing colour. Country Garden, Bonaire

This is Wathey Pier, near Philipsburg, on the dutch side of Sint Maarten Island (St Martin Is). The cruise ship Golden Princess is on the left and Carnival Victory on the right. The Mariner of the Seas and the Westerdam are docked behind. Another ship, The Empress of the Seas, is tendering from anchor in the harbour - just visible in right side picture.

Salt hills, piled up and ready to load onto ships after it was made in the ponds you can see in the foreground. This was taken in the south of Bonaire in the Netherlands Antilles. The reddish hue to the water comes from shrimp that grow in the water, which Flamingoes then come along and eat.

Peak Hour at Philipsburg, St Maarten. The ship on the left was actually anchored away from the pier and had tendered passengers to shore.

The national bird, the large yellow-breasted oriole (trupial), and its orange-breasted cousin, rumored to be the harbinger of good news if it sings its clear, melodious song while facing east.

Oh alright, I lied when I said I wouldn't post any more pictures of scad. You have to admit it looks kind of weird when the whole sky turns to fish...
This is Bari Reef in Bonaire. The government of the country made all the waters around the island a marine reserve, but then they also allow fishing! So shortly after this picture was taken fishermen came and now the fish are all gone. The fish shoaling like this is a seasonal phenomenon, but they took a lot of fish too.

It's an amazing experience to have a big shoal of fish come straight towards you and then suddenly change direction and swim around you - quite surreal. Bari Reef, Kralendijk, Bonaire.

The only non American country to commemorate the American Revolution on their license plate. These plates are often seen as souvenirs but to tell them from the real McCoy you will see the E191 which is the serial number. the souvenir plates do not have a serial number on them. This plate is one of the toughest modern era caribbean plates to find. Sint Eustatius or "Statia" as it is called is a tiny island.
