Another show of nature at home, an incredible amount of plankton by the shores of Palm Beach, Waiheke Island. So stunning to see the ocean in glowing blue!
These are microscopic organisms that are carried by the ocean, plants and animals that do photosynthesis using sunlight to create their own food and converting carbon dioxide into organic carbon. Shines due to a chemical reaction called bioluminescence. Magical to witness.
