Crab

Description:

While walking along the beaches of Borneo you always see thing moving out of the corner of your eye, but when you look there's nothing. I finally got the picture - tiny crabs who's bodies look just like the sand-balls they make when digging their holes. Just curious, do they repeat this process after every high tide? Second picture shows the hole and sand balls, and also the pathway they make along which they run sideways to get to the hole.

Habitat:

Beach
