Squid Warrior

One of my favourite knights from the weekend, but then again I'm partial to purple and cephalopods. I didn't get a chance to ask what flag he was fighting for, but my guess is the House of R'lyeh.

Ham Sandwich

I didn't realize the Zoo had a tank full of nautiloids. I thought these critters were deep water and required a specialized environment, but apparently I was wrong.

The tank was not lit, and I felt a little bad about using a flashgun, but they didn't react at all to the bright light. After reading up on them, it appears their vision is poor, lacking a lens within their eyes, so the light didn't bother them.

Don't ask me why, but when I was a kid, I always thought it looked like the nautiloid was eating a ham sandwich, but that's just their tentacles.

And just for those in the know: "Ph'nglui Mglw' nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn."
