Hi all,

There is a preview of the next episode of this excellent series here

It is featuring the courtship ritual of the weedy sea dragon-and shows how fanastic this series has been. BBC natural History unit at the top of their game again.

It is a beautiful sequence - but then why did they go after the "ugly" seadragon?

Amazing - so nice that they get to mate to nice mood setting music.

Wow. That was awesome. I hope they show it on PBS in the States. I saw a couple of weedies when I was in Sydney 2 years ago, but I wasn't there during the breeding season. Next time, I'll have to plan it better. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice!!!

Beautiful and interesting behaviour captured by the BBC team there, I haven't been fortunate enough to see it for myself yet. The courtship sequence

looks like it was taken at Flinders Pier area which by the way isn't "around two miles southeast of Melbourne"??? The hatching and juvenile footage must

have been taken in Pangs aquariums.

Cheers,

Jim.
