I caught some sea floor action a few weeks ago during the last full moon. I love a minus tide, when more of the tidal flats are exposed. It’s an area that’s often hidden but it’s just teeming with life!
I spent some time following around the smallest, living horseshoe crab I’ve ever seen (about 2” across). It ignored me as it busily maneuvered through the seagrass in search of a meal. Reminded me of a little bulldozer!
Then a consortium of hermit crabs caught my eye. They were surprisingly agile and quick considering the heavy shells they were lugging around.
