Monomad: Juvenile Fiddler Crab

This afternoon I went for another walk around the mangrove forest. As always, I saw many fiddler crabs in the mud and embankments. Some were running here and there, and some were dancing happily.

I attempted to capture a small one. It appeared to be a juvenile fiddler crab, identifiable by its translucent shell and claws. What a cute little guy!

The hot sun was a bit distracting. I needed something dark as a background. Fortunately, I had a black backpack, and it worked quite well.
