[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 220130, member: 1991"] Not to another squid. It's all in the eye of the beholder... I'd love to be able to not only change colour to blend in, but to be able to rhythmically pulse in psychedelic patterns. The other amazing thing - they can do this on the side facing the squid they're communicating with, while from the other direction they are blended in so they can't be seen. And if the squid of their fancy changes sides - the patterns/colours can change sides just as fast. At least squid don't have that big bobbly proboscis thingie flopped over on top of their heads. Maybe cuttlefish then... they're more streamlined. But all of them are intelligent, they're the smartest of all the invertebrates. That's cool too. Marg [/QUOTE]
