A Master of Disguise that packs a punch! This was taken yesterday in Nelson Bay the first time I’ve seen a Blue Lined Octopus during the day. The blue lines and rings only pulse bright blue when the octopus is intimidated, this is when people usually get bitten, they pick the octopus up not knowing it is a Blue Lined. The bite can be fatal. 🐙
