Eagle rays in the shallows

This movie shows eagle rays (probably Southern Eagle Rays, Myliobatis australis) in very shallow water at Hopetoun, Western Australia.

The footage was taken by Richard Rennie.  Thank you to Leonie Rennie for telling me about the clip on YouTube.  Leonie recently sent an image of a Western Smooth Boxfish taken at the same location.
