Octo

The octopus is a fascinating animal, probably one of my favorites to encounter while scuba diving. It can marry colors and even sometimes textures of places where it sets down. Not only is it the Queen of camouflage, but it is also blessed with unparalleled intelligence. You may have seen the videos on YouTube showing it getting out of a jar by unscrewing the lid from the inside. I had the chance to see one up close during a weekend of diving in the Aegean Sea (small sea between Greece and Turkey). Although it was a small specimen, it had the grace and elegance of a great lady.
