Planktons This tiny critters - Planktons were attracted by the light behind our Boat at night, probably millions of them and with their presence in big numbers, several Whale Sharks showed up to feed on them. Besides the Whale Sharks, other much smaller animals like Flyingfishes, Squids and Mantis Shrimps also came out to feast on them. Geotagged,Maldives,Planktons,Winter Click/tap to enlarge
