Congratulations Max Gallagher! Your spotting is featured in Project Noah's Fact of the Day:"Scallops can be found around the globe in all of our oceans. Unlike most marine bivalve mollusks, scallops are able to swim short distances. They have a well-developed nervous system and have numerous simple eyes situated around the edges of their mantles. The New Zealand Scallop featured here is completely free-living, mobile and somewhat migratory. It is endemic to New Zealand".
