I went to exercise and I always wind up walking on the beach or along the bay.
today we have high tide and high surf (waves). I was walking along the water edge and I saw this puffer fish. He was trying to get back in the deeper waters of the ocean yet the surf kept bringing him in with the rolling waves.
He was determined though.
We used to have one in our salt water tank. We named him E.T. for the movie because his eyes were so big.
He used to come to the top of the tank and would take minnows out of our hand to eat.
Puffers are actually pretty friendly and love the interaction with humans.
It made me smile when I saw him today. My son and I always say we saw another E.T. today.

Did he eventually make it back in the water?
