Field Notes

Description:

A giant tun (Tonna galea), spotted half burried in the sand, at Lagoudi beach, near Afissos village, Pagasitikos gulf, Greece. The species is protected by the Greek law, so after I unearthed it, I released it in deeper waters.
Μία μπουχώνα, που την εντόπισα μισοθαμμένη στην άμμο, στο Λαγούδι στην Άφησσο. Το είδος της είναι προστατευόμενο από την Ελληνική νομοθεσία και την απελευθέρωσα σε βαθύτερα νερά, αμέσως μετά τις φωτό.
