Thank you! It really does need our protection. I did not mention this but the rainbow parrotfish only get their start is in mangroves. They would not survive otherwise.
Wow Rich, this one is fantastic. I can see all the hard work you put in. Mike & I loved it. As always, Love your perspective. Give “D” a kiss for me XOXO Heidi
Once again fantastic images, this video is so well put together that it seems like it is a dream. I think it's just a small step towards the feeling of National Geographic. The drone images are also a very nice addition. What a beautiful life, the life of a diver. Many compliments, Walter.👌🏼
Nice job Rich! The short snorkeling allowed during the Kayak tour was fascinating, and let me wanting more. There's so much life there, but most of it seems to be very small :)
Yes. It is a nursery for the reef. I was looking for a shark but no luck. We at least got the tarpons. They were hidden way back in the canopy away from the normal kayak spots.
Very informative; I appreciate the myriad identifications accompanied by the ethereal score. Nice photography and I especially liked the inclusion of Casper's drone footage.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video! The composition, the narration, the macro, the editing... (maybe your best?) There is sooo much to see if we just pause and take a good look. Thank you for making this video. God bless.❤
I have been snorkeling in the mangroves a few times now and everytime I see something new and fascinating. Thank you for making this video and hopefully you can visit it some time in the future.
Thank you Fred! Definitely, the most challenging to make but when I get comments like that I am ready to get at it again. The mangroves were indeed inspiring.
Is this a shore dive in bonaire or is it a boat dive? I've never gotten this close to the mangrove. We've spent nearly a month there on vacation over 2 trips. The first location in the video.
A wonderful video! I like all the names of fish and coral you interject in your videos. Helps me see what I need to correct going forward. Loved the upside down jellyfish! Thank you for sharing!
That’s crazy!!! Well done buddy!!!
Thank you
Great job. Congratulations on such a spectacular job.
Thank you very much!
That was a lot of work! Well done. Love the juevi fish. Makes me aware of how much this area needs protecting.

Did you have to hold your breath repeatedly? Since you were using a snorkel.
Yes. I had to to get the shots. The juveniles are very shy.
Wat een prachtige opname!❤
Dank u wel!

This is a snorkel from shore. No scuba diving in this area. I show where I got in in the video.
