Swim | Octopus #07 | 20231007 | 1-memo•com | Octopus taking a swim , returning and feeding the fish ;) September 2023 in the Mediterranean, Ionian, Sea at Corfu, Greece.
Sandworm | Octopus #06 | 20231006 | 1-memo•com | That annoying sandworm on the roof is reprimanded. Generally these sandworms (Alitta virens) around the octopus (Octopus vulgaris) home, live symbiotic I belief, help keep the place clean, by feeding on all the little pieces of food waste. Filmed September 2023 – snorkeling in the Mediterranean, Ionian, Sea at Corfu, Greece.
Bread Tasting | Octopus #05 | 20231005 | 1-memo•com | Octopus tasting bread when I was feeding the fish, last month – September 2023 – snorkeling in the Mediterranean, Ionian, Sea at Corfu, Greece. The octopus (Octopus vulgaris) doesn’t care for bread. The fish do ! Later I have been feeding the octopus big prawns … for days … that is fun … the prawn shells are returned empty in a minute or so .. and meticulously cleaned by the sandworms (Alitta virens) living near its hole .. and the visiting fish. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to film the prawn feeding sessions since the octopus had cracked my camera before .. see film Octopus #04 :)
🐙 Cracked Camera ❗️| Octopus #04 | 20231004 | 1-memo•com | Octopus pulls the around 2 pounds (1 kg) camera equipment into its hole — a Insta360 Go 2 camera on a 120 cm (4 feet) monopod with Bushman counterweight and tripod .. all laying flat on the bottom … I had the camera set to film an 1 minute clip. So the camera finally being pulled entirely inside its hole , covered by the octopus, wasn’t captured on film. I grabbed all back … with force. Later that day more films were made that day with no problem – the camera appeared to be not damaged. The next day, however, the camera was malfunctioning , overheating … clearly broken adter all by that octopus … in the Mediterranean Sea at Corfu, Greece, Sep 2023.
First Encounter | Octopus #02 | 20231002 | 1-memo•com | Following yesterdays lower quality first clip (iphone export for socials) here a raw image from the Insta360 Go 2 camera of a first encounter underwater with this octopus living in what looked to me like a shell (bombshell) in the Mediterranean, Ionian, Sea at Corfu, Greece, snorkeling and feeding fish in the morning of Sep 21, 2023.
