Another cool example of octopus camouflage

Unfortunately, they don’t say what species this is, but this is an amazing example of the versatile camouflage ability of the octopus. What I find most interesting about this video is not that this octopus has altered its physical appearance to mimic seaweed, but that it is also acting like seaweed—drifting back and forth in the tide.
