yesterday: spent 2 hours looking at octopuses do nothing and nautiluses swimming into the walls of there tanks to make humerious "donk" sounds.

Yay cephlapods!

*grins* Sounds like a good use of a weekend to me.

When we started watching them, the octopuses were given a screw-lid jar with a shrimp in it, so we hoped they'd open it. This was due to some failiure of our puny centralised nervious systems, as their freakishly dispersed mollusk-intelects clearly had no interest in moving at all.
Then the aquarium closed, and we had to go home, defeated :)

Probably the octopuses got stage fright *nods sagely*

I love Nautiluses (Nautilii)? They are beautiful and strange...
