Art Film
This has everything: dance! costumes! underwater! underwater puppetry!
The film is about 10 minutes long and deserves your full attention, so if you're in the middle of your day perhaps you'd like to come back when you're settled in after dinner.

Seaside Magic

More Octopus Romance... and More Nail Art
Here in the open ocean, things seem a bit more decorous, but I still think there's a menacing undertone to the sentiment, "you ARE going to say you love me too." Nonetheless, I appreciate that the editor of this video has kept us on our toes with a Beatles' tune that is NOT Octopus's Garden.
Actual underwater footage starts at :22
These blue ring octopodes must be absolute champs at repelling the evil eye.
While we're on topic of nazars, how about some nail art!

More Owls
I hate to fall back on the obvious, but these owls really are "a hoot."
I like the commingled incredulousness and resignation at 0:11
