The Turks & Caicos Islands - 2013

This was a return visit to the Turks & Caicos Islands in Aug./Sept. 2013. Pictures are from Snorkeling, SNUBA, and SCUBA excursions. The pictures are pretty much in the time sequence taken, with no attempt to lump like sea life together. Fish names are not that easy to come up with considering how differently the same fish can look at different stages of life and sex. If you see any mistaken ID's, or know the name(s) of a fish not identified, please let me know, and I will include the name.
