Today I took a short hike to this place where I thought I would see some mud cracks due to the drought. To my surprise, I found a pool of colorful water. I suspect the colors were caused by the algae as some of the water puddles in the salt ponds were quite colorful. The sight of this colorful pool was actually quite eerie especially there was nobody around in this area which is quite far out into the bay. As I did not have my ultrawide angle, I had to take multiple shots and stitch them into a pano.

How about this for Smile on Saturday's combination of flora and fauna... A snapping turtle laying eggs and covered in algae.

The fish in the image is a Golden Chinese Algae Eater (Gyrinocheilus aymonieri), an ornate color variety of the common Chinese Algae Eater.

This freshwater fish is native to large parts of Southeast Asia, including Northern India and Thailand.

This is photographed from my sweet water tank.

I'm no expert so can only wonder whether it's a good place or not for a mother Mallard with new brood.

Blue-Green Algae (Cyanobacteria) - they can release toxins that are harmful to humans, pets, livestock.

The northern lights with a hint of bioluminescent algae in the waves.

Tell me this algae doesn't look like a nebula, birthing stars from galactic matter. So neat.

Thank you everyone for visiting, commenting and fav'ing - very much appreciated!

I discovered this green algae covered slough (secondary channel of a river delta) in Moss Landing, California. Although a bit disgusting, I think the swirls and reflections make up for an interesting scene.

This is the lake in the Japanese Garden area in the Missouri Botanical Garden. Thank you for having a look.

Looks pretty menacing. I think the thing that looks like a bit of piece of lokum/Turkish delight is a sea gooseberry.
