Those of us in Australia are so incredibly blessed to have one of the largest member of the seahorse family in the world gracing our shores, and the only seadragon/s (plural or singular depending on the classification) in the world. These gentle creatures manage to make brilliant colour into camouflage, showing us that even beauty and magnificence can be used as a form of invisibility.

Found on the southern coastline of Australia (including this beautiful South-West corner that I call home), they grace our reefs in shallow waters. They are one of my favourite aquatic animals. :) The ocean is often depicted as violent, but the reefs shelter this fragile, exquisite creature and remind us that there are pockets of stillness and solitude to be found even amongst the most violent of storms.

Thanks so much! It's always nice to get comments from people just dropping by. :D *hugs*

Oooo, it's also great to meet people who have been to WA! It's not that many - even for Australians! Haha. Sad really. *grin*

I love WA (the flora, the fauna and the landscape). Was there for about 6 years - I think, the state has gotten into my bones, into my psyche. :)

*hugs back*
