Crab

After a day of continuous rain, the sunshine was a welcome sight. Heading for my bike I noticed this shell in the middle of the path. Betty keeps this place shipshape so I knew it had to be a hermit crab.










After waiting patiently (read impatiently) for almost 10 minutes this video is the best I could get.


I thought perhaps it was the stones slowing him down, catching on his shell, so I put him in the flower bed. When I placed him on the leaves he popped out right away and started waving his antennae around. I like to think he was thanking me.
