Photo of a fish on my hand. Pale orange in colour, a closed pointed mouth and large eye. The first dorsal fins are erect and lined with a row of spines.

The Boar fish / Zulu fish is a deep water species so how it found its way in shore, we’ll never know. Removed from the water for a quick photo to aid identification then returned water where it swam to the cover of seaweed.
