I was at the beach this weekend. Oxnard, California. I've never seen so many sand crabs before. Every footstep in the sand was filled with little crabs trying to burrow back below.
I was trying to get a shot of them....none really came out well. But, incidentally, I got a shot that showed something I had never seen before.

I've heard that they stick out an antenna from the sand, and much as I had stared at all those tiny holes in the sand, I've never seen them before.
They use their antennae to catch plankton as the waves wash over them.
I think this will be a good year for surf fishing.
