They're baaaack....

A little late this year I think...
Don't take another step!
Do people do this in your neighborhood? For whatever reason, people here chronically steal shopping carts and dump them in canals. I guess these two crabs are thinking "artificial reef".
We've already had one at the front door and one in the backyard...and I think they are just getting started :)

  1. That crab in the 2nd picture looks fierce! What kind of crabs are they? I realize they're blue, but they don't look like the blue crabs we had in Alabama.

  2. They look cool, but really kinda creepy, too. Hmmm.

  3. I think they are called land crabs or maybe blue land crabs. For some reason when they are underwater some of them look reddish too.

  4. I was always afraid of them. After living in Miami it took me so long to thing a leaf blowing across the road wasn't a crab.
