HI All
we we did 3 more dives with the occys over the weekend.
on friday the big guy was very friendly again , with bold behavior , reaching out , grabbing , touching , very sociable , grabbed onto my hand , whole body on my hand biting and generally curious behavior . also chasing smaller occys and dragging them out of their holes
then Sunday the big guy was much more shy , he was out of his regular hole and another occy was living in it , when i approached him he actually pushed my hand away , but most of the smaller occys were more friendly and curious on that day
blue dots are visable in natural light , torch or strobe brings light up better.
small occys would be less than 1/2 size of the big guy
i defenitly notice moods with the occys ,
if the dont want to play i leave them alone , i am also patient , no need to rush the encounter .
they do seem to remember me
still hoping to get in for a night dive ,
big seas and wind at the moment so no diving for a few days
