Most certainly, as growler explains in his link. As a diver I have a healthy respect for them and have seen them on several occasions. This one was very agitated as you can see from the colour.
I've read that they also have toxin in their skin that's why we scooped up the sand so there was no way it was touching my skin let alone biting me. What did amaze me was that so few people believed that it was deadly.

Been going through our photos on PC and found this. What a beauty.

Hi all,
Time to get any last minute entries in.
This months comp will close for entries at 6pm Vic time on Wednesday 30th April

cheers,
Cuppa
