Day Octopus (Octopus cyanea) ワモンダコ – He’e Mauli – size 4.5kg
This is a common octopus in Hawaii. They are often seen during the day. The ones above could be the same. They are hard to tell apart. This and the next two pictures are of the same octopus. The color changes are sometimes gradual and sometimes like a flash. Kauai 2012
