I just have to share this... I find it simply *amazing* what living creatures can do! ^____^ And... well... tentacles!

That is soooooo amazing! I watched one do that in Deep Sea- but it's much easier to see all the changes in the still photos!

Tentacles! It's nice that someone shares my fascination with them.

Wow! He goes from acid-trip octo to pokey ol' nuthin'-ta-see-here octo just like that! Amazing. I wonder how long it takes?

Thanks for that! ^_^

Not long, apparently, since a few people mentioned not being able to follow the change very well in real time. ^___^ I love these weird animal tricks!

The blogger who linked to this is a *huge* cephalopod fan.

He does a cephalopod Friday every week. ^_____^ Lots of tentacles!

It just blows me away the things that aquatic creatures can do. Makes me want to go down to the aquarium and pet a manta ray. ^____^

Oh, I read that because you linked to it once. Lots of fun!

It took me a minute to realize that was the same critter! O.o

He's usually got the best wank on the internet. ^____^

It's no wonder cephalopods scare the crap out of people; they change shape, color, texture like magic. ^____^
