필리핀, 아포섬에서 촬영한 거북이들입니다. 아포섬은 해양 보호 구역으로 잘 보호되고 있어서 거북이들을 아주 많이 볼 수 있습니다. 거북이들은 보통 다이버들을 두려워하지 않고 그다지 신경쓰지도 않아서 느긋하게 관찰하는 것도 좋습니다. 하지만 방해를 하거나 만지는 일은 없어야겠지요?

캐논 5D Mark III, 8-15mm 렌즈로 촬영하였습니다.

Odd Couple: Shrimp goby and blind shrimp

Spotted Shrimp goby – Amblyeleotris guttata, Shot in Dauin, Philippines.

These shrimp goby live in a symbiotic relationship with shrimps(they sharing same burrow). The shrimps are almost blind and need the goby to keep an eye out for predators. Shrimp goby needs a hiding place and benefits from living in the burrow excavated by the shrimp.

Snapping (Blind) shrimp – Alpheus sp., Shot in Dauin, Philippines.

I’m sure many people already know about relationship this shrimp and goby.
But I’m still very curious to know how they actually decide to pair up in the first place?
