We were fooling around with some of our T positive Nics the other day and took these comparison pictures of a baby from this year, last year and 2004. I love these kind of pictures because you can see how they change as they grow and kind of get a feel for the different looks. The 2 year old is one that has a more sandy colored saddle, whereas the yearling will have more of a pumpkin orange saddle color with more color dispersed over his whole body. Not sure which look the baby will have yet, but the fun of these is waiting to see how they turn out! One of these days I'll put a few of the 2 year olds together so you can see the range of looks in the the littermates from 2004...really cool and subtle variations! Ignore the lump in the 2004 belly...she's quite the demanding eater! lol



Anyway, I've been sick for over a week and I figured I'd pass some time posting some pictures! lol













And just for fun, here are some pictures of a 25 lb. dolphin I caught back in April during a father/daughter fishing trip down at my dad's house in the Keys. Didn't get a chance to go back down during May when the fish were really biting like crazy(somebody has to take care of the snakes! lol) but my dad had quite a good run and I'm not complaining about this catch! For some reason I can't post the first picture we took of this fish but the color change was amazing...it started out so deep blue and green! Mahi Mahi are like neon lights in the water!
