Good afternoon everyone,

I didn't even post on the earlier thread, but I could tell it was getting too long.

here's a fish shot

Whoa! Hello Shiva.

If you look closely you can almost see a sucker

I hope she won't destroy the reefcam, and some visitors



Joost

JAKE! JAKE! Shiva's taking your filter again !!

Happy Hour

Shiva is going to put Jake out of a cleaning job. Is there any way Shiva can be scheduled to come by on a regular basis for cleaning duty? LOL

hi all, looks like she left the filter on, hope she gave it a good clean and didn't leave a slime trail!

Good morning, BTers. Its 7:58 am in Juneau, where the temperature is a nice 32F/0C. (Sorry, Mark), and I am off to work. Have a nice day or rest of the day as befits your current location.

Thanks for the clean up Shiva

Just glanced up from nose to grindstone position, and there they were!!

Folks, I have a few questions about octopuses from those who have seen them close up. First of all, do they have a regular lair, or do they just flit about? Second, when they're not trying to wrestle with lens filters, what's their preferred mode of getting around - swimming or scuttling? And - I seem to recall that they're shy critters?

I love seeing what's under the ocean's surface, but I know very little about it... and no time to Google!

With Octopus it depends on the species. I believe that with these particular critters they are going to stay in one area as long as it remains safe. They will have several places to reside as the forage for food with one or two primary nests. Speaking of nests, once the female does lay eggs she will guard it non stop until they all hatch. And their primary mode of locomotion is to scuttle, if that's what you would call it.

Here comes one!

Anita,
Just visit our website ( see our profile ) and have a click on 2002 Mauritius vacation, then you'll learn more about octopus behaviour...
Good night every body, time for us to go to bed.
see you tomorrow.

Two More!

Good night, Martine & Jean Paul; sleep well.

Evening All,
Just got done shoveling the driveway. Looks like it was a busy day on the cam. Heres my contribution. He almost made it by
Scott

Dan, hello,
what do you see coming up which I do not see?

Hi, joost;
Look at the bottom of the pic just to the right of center. Only his head is visible.
Unfortunately, I saved the big one, not the small one, so its not quite as clear.
Dan

Dan, I really like the capture you got on 17:38 Perfect Shot!

Dan, rodger

I really do miss being here with you all, and there are so many new chatters too. Just remember, I will be back soon.

Kevin, I hope you got the email. I messed up somewhere along the line, but then that is not unusual for me. LOL. Annie B.

Sleep well everyone.

Between two naps I got this nice moonlight. I Go back sleeping now...
