May be 'Crabby'! Surprised

Especially the little moving clip on the website of the crab scissoring the mussel open. Simple but very interesting to be

given new information about everyday living (for a crab).

we went to the coast and looked for crabs munching on mussels............................. they dont do it while you are looking!
it was good to

know what they actually get up to though.... well done.... Now you need to tell how the heck you find em up to their tricks.

We went to the shore at easter and as usual though it was a peaceful place. It is for us indeed, but to imagine (we

didnot see much action) the doings of the creatures that live there was a good eye opener.
much respect.

Its what they do! It is indeed a dog eat dog (or crab eat mussel) type of survival stress place. Very

interesting.
We saw the demo cd sea shore antics 2005 in plymouth and thought it a novel idea. good luck with it (have ordered ours - do i get it free now!??) Wink

Hi. Thought idea is great idea. its fun to watch and it is mentioning that nature on the seashor is hard to live. i collect

and see things in rock pools wen the tide gone out, but they hide from big hunter (me!). other webs show pic and infimation, but yours show them living a bit. would like

more if posible.

2 hours to scissor a tin open would p*** a lot of us humans off! So good for the crab to invest that effort to get into a mussel for a bite to

eat.
good story/info though. Very interesting. Would agree want more.

Cheers

hello. what a cute little site. x

So crabs actually invest time getting food and have to fight to keep it. Blennys nick grub from crabs. anemones tear

themselves in two for sex. and although we all know that fish live in water, there is one local that chooses to stay out of it for a good few hours..............

We

thought they did no more than provide sport of catching them and popping in a bucket!!!

very interesting, thank you very much, good luck with developing a

bigger site - it is hoped!

wnet to beach and saw thousands of mussels. They were and always have been, black oval hard little objects attached to rocks with no

movement or signs of life at all......... but your little pump video clip of them filterfeeding was a very intrigueing camera capture. It is indeed the work that they do, day

in day out.
Now when i see static mussels on the rock, i see the moving image you gave in my mind, and then it is easier to appreciate they are little creatures

surviving on our shores - their shores!

Nice - more please Smile
