## Caption

BIG news over at birchaquarium 👏 After completing an intricate courting dance, a female Weedy Seadragon transferred hundreds of tiny bright pink eggs on this male’s tail. 

This is the first time Birch Aquarium has ever had a successful transfer of eggs IN the Seadragons and Seahorses exhibit! Over the next 4 to 6 weeks this new dad will keep these eggs safely tucked away and await for them to hatch. 

ID: A male Weedy Seadragon swimming with hundreds of bright pink eggs tucked under his tail.
