Found an octopus in my pocket!
Just thought I would share a little story from my Mexico trip last week.
On the first day of our holiday I took my little girls down to the beach for a walk. While exploring a tide pool, I found a seashell. I checked to make sure it wasn’t alive, than placed in my pocket. A few minutes later I put another shell in my pocket. To my surprise, there was something wet and slimy in my pocket. I thought it was going to by the foot from the live shell. However, it turned out to be a small octopus. I tried to place it back into the shell, but it just sat on the rim giving me the evil eye. I gently put him back in the ocean. I’m not sure how well he will survive that close to shore, but maybe he will swim out to deeper water. I,m glad I was in Mexico, 1000 miles away from home, because I would have been so tempted to put him/her in my tank (although I know what caos that would cause). DSC_8944[2].jpg dsc_8951.jpg
