Tales from the Lagoon ~ Episode: Gender Reveal!

Today felt like a full-on lagoon party…

It began with sweet, quality time with Momma Boop and Baby Puff, joined by a dozen pelicans keeping things lively. After a few hours, the boys arrived—Cutter, Charley, Ocean, Whisper, and several others—bringing a whole new level of energy to the water.

Soon after, more moms and calves joined in, and Baby Puff was thrilled to have a little playmate.

And then… the moment.

Baby Puff popped up just long enough to give us a view of his belly—

It’s a boy!

For those who are curious, males have one long slit with a smaller slit above it (like an exclamation point), while females have a longer slit with two smaller slits on either side (more like a division sign).

Puff earned his name after two days of pure joy playing with a puffer fish… and just like his mom, he already loves giving playful “boops” to the birds.

In this series, he’s chasing a cormorant for a little boop of his own…. Let’s just say the cormorant was not nearly as amused as Puff.

Stay tuned for more tales!
