Spotted Eagle Ray (Aetobatus narinari). Family: Eagle Ray - Myliobatidae.
Size: 5 - 8 feet (wing tip to wing tip)
Depth: 6 - 80 feet
They cruise walls and sandy areas, occasionally stopping to dig in sand for tasty mollusks. Common
in the Caribbean. I 'spotted' this one in the sand flats near a wreck off Cayman Brac. Most eagle rays
seem to be diver-wary and very camera shy, which makes it difficult to photograph them.
