Manta Ray we spotted off Triggs today

Manta Ray we spotted off Triggs today

Had a great day today catching big plump whiting off Scarbs. On the way we drove past something on the surface of the water. We turned around and went back, and to our amazement was a Manta ray. First time ive seen one, not how many are spotted around the metro area? Sorry about the pic, come from the iphone.
