In Octavia's arms at the N.E. Aquarium
"When I would visit my octopus friend, Octavia, at the New England Aquarium, usually she would look me in the face, flow right over to see me, and flush red with emotion when she took my arms in hers. Often when I'd stroke her she'd turn white beneath my touch, the color of a relaxed octopus.''
-- Sy Montgomery, a writer about animals and author of The Soul of an Octopus (2015).
