Shark and Tuna

Shark_and_tuna

In the Outer Sea Exhibit, at the Monterey Bay Aquarium, we have a visiting baby white shark. He's sooo cute!!! He's pretty shy though, he mostly stayed in the upper corner of the tank and would only occasionally swim past the exhibit window. The real show stoppers, at least according to Ronny where the schools of tuna and sardines which glittered in the light streaming through the clear blue water.
