Thank you for asking :)
That's wonderful thank you!
Sure Mary I'm happy for you to use it.
Is there a way to get photo permissions to use this image on an article on the Crab Street Journal (.org) website? We are trying to help people identify the differences between marine hermit crabs and the land hermit crabs we keep as pets. Crabstreetjournal@gmail.com if you need an email address. Thank you!
Thanks!
Nice series.
