If you've been following my blog you will know that I enjoy watching the antics of the little crabs that inhabit the beach. They are usually so quick to move that rarely do I get this close a look. My first thought was that this guy looks like a little leopard. How cute. Most of our native crabs are sand colored so they blend right in to the background. This one was unusual.When I got home and looked him up I saw that of course crabs having this unusual marking pattern are indeed called leopard crabs... imagine that!
