Surprise off a northern island

Blue ring octopus (RA)Last week Miguel’s Diving staff took a survey trip to one of the islands off Gorontalo’s northern coastline in the Sulawesi Sea. These waters are a different ocean that the one we usually dive and marine life is different. While absorbed in photographing Grape stalk tunicates that are not found in our southern dive sites, our dive master noticed some flashes of blue in some very nearby rubble: a highly agitated Blue-ring octopus. Dumping lots of nudibranch photos from the memory card, he managed several shots of the ever-moving octopus before it disappeared down a crack.
