๐คHave you ever seen a blue sea dragon?
๐ This pelagic sea slug (Glaucus marginatus) floats upside down, travelling by winds and ocean currents, feeding on other drifting species.
๐ฅ Instead of spitting fire, the blue sea dragon can deliver a painful sting!

How far do the Sooty Terns of Farquhar fly? These miniature backpack GPS loggers have been deployed on 11 birds in #Seychelles to track their location, fishing areas and how long they stay at sea. #conservation #visitseychelles #birdlife #ics #seychellesisland #Nature #farquhar

Imagine counting thousands of Sooty Tern chicks running around in a colony like crazy chickens! Just another day in the office for @ICSSeychelles team on @FarquharAtoll. The recent census shows an estimated 232,462 breeding pairs of the #seabird species on Iles aux Goelettes.
