Not sure exactly which kind of crab this is, but they are running around on the bank of the river. This one just happened to climb up on the large tree that had fallen. Think it is a variety of sand crab.
Wonderful to see this in nature. It pains me to see the pretty blue ones in tiny plastic containers at Walmart... they never live very long as pets. Great pic of this cutie.
@milaniet@dkbarnett@lyndemc Thanks Milanie, Delwyn, and Denise. Yeah, there are quite a few of these things running around down on the ground. They usually run into a hole before you can really get a good sighting of them.
