Purple Shore Crab

Purple Shore Crab, Hemigrapsus nudus
Lone Ranch Beach
Brookings, Oregon


One of my daughters nearly stepped on this little guy (or gal? We didn't check) as we were climbing over the rocks today. He must have been hiding under the rockweed; I suspect he got nudged by a foot before he came scampering out.
