Grouper Love

One of the fun things about some of our dive sites here on Little Cayman is our friendly groupers. Some of these guys just love to follow us around and enjoy a scratch under the chin or a belly rub. We don’t feed them – they’re just begging for attention. The red grouper pictured followed me around for a good 10 minutes the other day underwater. But the funniest part is he didn’t like it when another diver got between him and me and he nipped the other diver on the heel! That’s never happened before. So not only do I have a grouper boyfriend, but he has a jealous streak!
