I was swimming in the ocean near my house and a clump of seaweed floated by me, so i picked it up to fling it out of the way, but i saw something of a slightly different color among the clump. I thought it was a crab at first, but I picked up the baby seahorse and watched it swim around in my hands and curl around my fingers. The exoskeleton was hard and as he moved it made snapping noises as he wiggled back and forth. I took this picture with my underwater camera and then released him.
