Crab Pincers

October 15th, 2009, posted in Creatures Great & Small

It was a relaxed short walk down to the waterfall, there is something calming about the sound of running water, Joshua leapt from rock to rock and then found a crevice in which to wedge himself, climbed under a rock and then excitedly pointed to parts of a crab’s exoskeleton. The sun bleached ‘claw’, appendages and pincer had captured his attention and for the next hour Joshua began asking questions about crabs. To which I had to rack my memory to find him answers!! Are crabs white? How many legs do crabs have? What do crabs eat? Where do crabs live? How big are crabs? What can pincers do to people? etc etc.
