On a recent swim, I happened to pass over this Pacific Day Octopus, wedged into a crack, not far below the water’s surface. It didn’t have a good, quick escape route so waited out my intrusion into its world. On the left is a red pencil urchin that it was butted up against.

I’m glad you know what you’re looking at most of the time. I think I’d see a pair of eyes and skedaddle.

Funny you should say that. It was the eyes that drew me to this photo. Usually it’s really hard to see octopus eyes, but these came out pretty well.

The Octopus said to the Urchin “Look this is uncomfortable for me as it is you. Once that big thing has gone, I’ll be on my way, just stop complaining.”
