## Photos
*[135 - 2023-07-22 - Grottes fauconières - Saint Cyr - France](135%20-%202023-07-22%20-%20Grottes%20fauconières%20-%20Saint%20Cyr%20-%20France.md) - It's a female. There's a sexual dimorphism on these fish, and the male is rather green, but with the same characteristics. Behind is maybe a Symphodus Melanocercus. But I got this photo too far.*

## Notes
This fish make nests just like birds. They come and go from a seaweed grove to their nest to build it with branches.
