A pair of BEAUTIFUL rescue sea turtles spot their catch in the waters of the Great Barrier Reef. The two Olive Ridley sea turtles, which were rescued from Cape York, Queensland, bite into squid as they enjoy a swim in the sea, near their sanctuary in Cairns, on the north-east coast of Australia. These beautiful photographs were taken by photographer Christian Miller, the director of Cairns Turtle Rehabilitation Centre.
