The most graceful creature in the sea is a Spotted Eagle ... by Suzan Meldonian
The most graceful creature in the sea is a Spotted Eagle Ray. They avoid divers' bubbles. I waited as it came thru the bridge and held my breath. 8 ft across, it moved swiftly. Then it slowed. As it was right upon me, I gasped for air & it took off.
