We were out at Egmont Key yesterday, and there were large pods of Manta Rays or Bat Rays swimming around. I'm talking groups of 20 or so swimming in alignment in about 3 feet of water. We saw this happening all day, and must have seen a total of 200 rays by the time we left.
Does anyone know if this is a migratory pattern? Is it mating season? I don't recall seeing this last year. It was a pretty amazing sight to see! Unfortunately, I didn't have a camera or I would post the photos.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can shed some light on this.
