The bluegill is a species of freshwater fish that can be found in North America. Its most distinctive feature is its black spot on the posterior edge of the gills and base of the dorsal fin. It usually has a dark olive back that is blending to lavander, brown, copper or orange on the sides and reddish-orange or yellow on the breast and abdomen.
An interesting fact is that the bluegill has the ability to travel and change directions at high speeds.
