entry description
Coconut Octopus (Amphioctopus marginatus) inside a bivalve shell which it was opening to take a look and then closing it with its arms when it felt threatened. This octopus has become famous for its ability to use innovative housing concepts. I have dozens of photos from this species but always derive great pleasure from watching and photographing it.
