Day octopus is a real shapeshifter!

I just returned from the Cook Islands, and wanted to share this video I shot of what I believe to be a day octopus (Octopus cyanea). I just happened to spot him when my wife stopped to shoot a blue crocea clam, and spent the next hour with him as he showed off some amazing disgiuses.

If you haven't seen my other octopus video, look below in this forum for this title:Octopus playing hide and seek in video. It's a Caribbean reef octopus that spent 10 minutes trying to trick me with his camo tricks.
