Second Trip to Lembeh and Still Awesome!
Nadia Aly (Scuba Diver Life) returned to Lembeh Resort and dived with Critters@Lembeh for the second time. During her dives with us Nadia got cool shots of a mimic octopus, starry night octopus (a first for Nadia), and most exciting, as a mantis enthusiast, a mantis shrimp with eggs. Read what Nadia had to say about it:
This was a very memorable experience with this Mimic. He/she went all the way to the surface while I was shooting it, which I hear is very rare. Another magical dive in Lembeh! I have a thing for Mantis Shrimp. No really, I would rather take photos of a Mantis shrimp than most other creatures. This was my first experience with a Mantis & Eggs. I just read that the female and male in some species of Mantis will take care of the eggs, while the other hunts. How interesting! This was on my last night dive in Lembeh. I had convinced some other guest to try out a night dive, informing them how many Octopus there are! There wasn’t ONE until the last ten minutes of the dive! The starry night of course, another first in Lembeh!
