Sand Crab
Uploaded: September 03, 2008
In early morning when turists are still sleeping (but not all of them...), the beautiful sand beaches of La Digue Island in the Seychelles are the reign of these little sand crabs. I laid flat on the sand and patiently waited near a hole...and then he came out. Surprinsigly he was not much disturbed and calmly proceeded with his morning job of digging out sand from the hole.
