Home of the Fiddler Ray
It’s very hard to fiddle if you don’t have any hands, it’s even harder to play the violin. So just how the Fiddler Ray got its name is a mystery.
Fiddler Rays can be recognised in the water by their lovely pattern. They are oviparous which means their eggs are laid and then contained inside their body until they hatch. They don’t have a poisonous barb at the end of their tail like some of the other big rays.
Fiddler rays fins are often mislabeled and served up as shark. Despite this, of all the big rays in Sydney, Fiddler Rays are still the most common.
