The next day the octopus was more relaxed about the camera and accepted a crushed oyster from me. After eating the flesh it "put" the shell very precisely to the side of the den entrance. Note the shrimp in attendance - a number of shrimps and triple fin fishes shared the rock pool with the octopus. It ignored them, and they were unafraid of it while taking advantage of the food scraps I had put in the water.
