20070806m_U301A_Bartolome_SurgeonfishSchool School of Surgeonfish, Pinnacle Rock

This is just a small part of a very large school of surgeonfish that were hanging around the base of Pinnacle Rock. Part of the time there was a sea lion playing with them. He didn't seem inclined to eat any; he would just hide under a rock at the bottom and then shoot out among them when they got close and they would scatter in all directions.
