What does it look like to you?

My son says it looks like a manatee.

My first thought was an embryo.

My second thought was an ear.

It looks like the ear of an embryonic manatee. That was my first thought.

It's amazing how those reefs form in the middle of deep water. They're all over the place on the great barrier reef although this one is pretty far south. I don't know if it's even considered to be part of the GBR. Zen, any ideas off the top of your head?

Decided to look for the answer myself and nope, it's about 900kms south of the GBR. So no, not part of it. :)

It looks like one of those things that eats your sewage from the Rid X commercials
