the caviar of easter eggs

while trawling through the smithsonian's flickr page today, i came across donald erdman's field book. wow, does that contain some wonderfully vibrant and whimsical drawings of fish! 

and you know how i do when it's close to easter, yeah? uh huh, eggs. fish.....fish eggs. the caviar of easter eggs. and that is how i ended up with six specimens. 


fish out of water!


here are eulamia,


epinephelus,


wrasse,


lutjanus sp ,


lethrinus nebulosus


and, my favorite,  hemiramphus



all based on erdman's fantastic drawings.
