I saved a fish today!

I was busy photographing this pretty(?) pink algae (that's what I think it is) which is growing on one of the creeks in our Lake Pertobe area when I saw this fish! A quick photo and then I found a long stick and poked a hole through the algae and he swam away. Something different :)

Well done for saving the fish. Lovely shot. It must be a fishy day today because I posted photos from the aquarium in Canberra.

I have just checked out some of your photos which I missed over the last two weeks, but am on catch up today, so can't comment on all of them.

The algae and the story are equally interesting and delightful!

It was a lucky day for the fish and the pink algae is amazing.

Nice to hear of someone actually helping a fish back into the water instead of dragging it out! Well done you!

[Ingrid]

Good timing for the fish! Hopefully he doesn't do that again :

I'm sure the fish was very happy that you noticed him. Well spotted and captured!

I thought you were going to say, "I gave it the kiss of life". Instead you give us a fishy story. Nice capture. WELL DONE DENISE.

[Margaret Brown]

Well spotted and caught!

Well done for saving the fish. That algae or whatever it is is very pretty.

Safe for another swim! Cool algae too~

[Denise (lyndemc)]

I can just picture the little fish swimming about, excitedly telling his harrowing story and how a lovely lady came to his rescue. The algae he was marooned on is sure pretty.
