Horseshoe Crab Sighting

The horseshoe crabs are back at the beach
Every fall they arrive in large numbers
My brother Tug is a little afraid of them
Funny how he loves fish bones and mussel shells
But he stays away from the horseshoe crabs
Actually I can’t say I blame him
They are rather prehistoric looking

Nice on the hunt portrait and detailed thoughts as they hunt the exposure is superb and the back ground could not be better. Nice detail. Vote

:-) Some cautious anticipation is evident here. Terrific shot and story!

What a wonderfully captured moment! This is so cool how it makes me a part of this moment! V

Once again, you know exactly what they're thinking, you know their expressions so well!

A wonderful candid shot of these two!

Apparently they have been around for 445 million years, so you are right Tug, they are definitely prehistoric.

Love Tug's expression and the low POV.

You can almost hear them alerting each other to stand back :) Fabulous detail. V

Such cute buddies beach combing together...I find the horseshoe crabs fascinating. When we visited Cape Cod a few years ago, we watched them swim up to the beaches...I heard they have blue colored blood? V

Something has their attention! Love the expressions. V

Love this POV, they look like they are wandering across a vast plain, mighty hunters... VV

Helen Betts		10-Oct-2021 13:48
Love the expressions on their faces, and Tug does look a bit hesitant. V.

Tom LeRoy		10-Oct-2021 13:43
They are intent on getting one of crabs cornered! Love their expressions and this is so well photographed. V

Pierre Martin		10-Oct-2021 12:46
like both facial expression, splendid shot!

Carl Carbone		10-Oct-2021 12:33
Shot from the horseshoe crab's perspective! Very nice. :-)

I have new respect for the horseshoe crab after seeing what they can do with their blood

pkocinski		10-Oct-2021 11:54
Love it. I think there could be a story book in the future about the adventures of these two (and others).
