There is an excellent video series on marine animals by local filmmaker Ziggy Livnat on TV2 News each Wednesday night, and online.

See the current 3-minute episode about the octopus before it is replaced with the next episode tomorrow night:

From the site: "For The Sea Productions is releasing a new production entitled Learning to Sea – in the Virgin Islands. It's a series of 13 three-minute episodes appearing weekly on TV2 News. Each week's episode will feature a different marine animal in its natural environment with stunning recently filmed imagery, as well as interesting facts and humor narrated by the talented Ted Davis. Each episode will be accompanied by spectacular original music composed to picture by St Croix's own born and raised Padraic Coursey and A.J. Ventura. Footage for this series was gathered by Livnat and his crew over the course of eighteen months and several hundred dives in the USVI."

These are great and well done. Much more interesting than those very cheesy Innovative Infomercials that are just painful to watch. It would be great to have these continue about all aspects of our environment and culture here. So much to learn.
