While we two-legged types are looking forward to summer at the beach, I’m quite certain the seashore critters aren’t as excited about the season. For them, it’s all about dodging and weaving, hiding and burrowing… Starfish are dreading the chubby fingers that pluck them off of the rocks. Hermit crabs are practicing their mad dashes for freedom. Seagulls are perfecting their sidling, sneaking up on unattended coolers of food. And this poor horseshoe crab is making a frantic escape from a gaggle of curious children before someone gets brave enough to pick him up.
