This was in the vancouver sun this morning. Although a majority of the article talks about coral species, there was this adorable octopus picture too! I thought people might enjoy a read through!
A friend from DownEast was just over yesterday and asked if I knew there are octopus around here. I did not. He said they are so small they would fit in a specimen container. I will have to put the word out or ask my fishermen / lobster / crabbers friends to keep a lookout for one or two for me.
