Spotted the eyes of this little Sydney Octopus in a crevice & went for a look. It was pretty shy, though, and didn't come out from behind it's garden of shells.

Gloomy Octopus (Octopus tetricus) found at Little Manly, NSW, where there are lots of little hidey-holes. This octopus took part in some impromptu urchin-shell soccer (check the movies section).
