Little Cuttlefish, swimming at night
They have sophisticated eyes... Although cuttlefish cannot see colour, they can perceive the polarization of light, which enhances their perception of contrast. They have two spots of concentrated sensor cells on their retinas, one to look more forward, and one to look more backward (from Wikipedia).
