More video from last night's visit to the midnight #KingTide at #TwanohStatePark Washington. #LowTide
I spotted at least 5 different #HermitCrabs carrying around smaller hermit crabs by their shell. Apparently a reproduction practice, which somehow seems worse than them saving a snack for later.

Exploring the midnight #KingTide at #TwanohStatePark was fascinating.
One of my favorite sightings was watching this Purple Shore Crab, Hemigrapsus nudus, burying itself in the sand.
