Don’t be crabby

I swear I was just sitting on the beach one day, taking some photos of the sunset.  When all of a sudden this guy comes right up to me and starts clicking his claws at me over and over.  When I turned my head to look directly at him and consider taking his photo, he raised clasws and took and couple small crab-steps towards me.  That’s when I knew I had to get this guys photo.

This particular crab is called a ghost crab. They usually come out at night or a bit earlier if the feeding is good. This ghost crab was on Service Club beach in Venice Florida.
