Seahorse first

On Thursday, we had, for us, a first: a live seahorse had washed up on the beach at La Ropa. It was fairly large, as seahorses go....probably 6 in/15 cm. I took it out beyond the breaking waves, but have no idea if it survived.

A few years ago, I did the same with a tiny turtle hatchling. A few seconds after releasing it, a frigate bird swooped down and scooped it up. Life is hard.....
