We have been out for lunch today with a group of friends to celebrate a couple of birthdays and surrounding the restaurant were these fish. I hope they weren't on the menu.
Such beautiful koi carp, and beautifully captured . I used to have koi in my garden pond , till the heron got them !! They were too expensive to replenish the pond just for the heron's breakfast ! fav
funny- I was just talking about this with someone today- that is whether or not koi are edible. Technically, yes, you could eat them because they are in the carp family and people all around the world consume carp. But this kind are purely ornamental/decorative so they will probably not end up on the menu. Good shot!
@beryl The heron got a good meal out of you didn't it.
@casablanca No, it is a barramundi farm and I did have barramundi for lunch which was bred there but I didn't see it beforehand.
