@olivias_reef spotted this Giant Pacific Octopus crawling along the deep wall at Madrona Point during a recent dive trip. She watched it for 5 minutes before it switched into hunt mode, forming a tent-like structure over cracks and boulders to trap shrimp, crabs, and small fish beneath its arms. Notice how the rockfish follow behind, hoping to snag any prey that escapes. 🐟 Learn more about diving in our region: https://www.visitparksvillequalicumbeach.com/things-to-do/outdoors/on-the-water/scub
