Nerr ner ner ner nerr, beat ya by one; I've seen exactly two, but they were
greater hammerheads, one 3m & one 4m, from only about 5-6 ft away. When
you're that close to one of these beasts you're right - they look nothing
like the pictures - it must be the way they look at you from those funny
great eyes; you also appreciate why they are called 'greater' and known as
'apex predators' !!!
Anyhow, after today I am off for a few days so I wish you all a happy new
year - don't do anything I wouldn't do !!!
Cheers.......
