Apparently after the first rain every year in the green season these colorful little creatures surge down the hill side towards the beach, leaving their mudholes for reproduction and spawn..
They stop for nothing.. and they comes in thousands..!
During the day you hear some rustling in the grass and dry leaves in the ditches.
Hiding from passing cars and sunlight..
Night time is when they frolic.. everywhere there's a couple of sideway running critters trying to look as big as they can with their claws all spread wide above their heads as if trying to tell me how big of a catch they caught today..
-eh hombre, I swear amigo, ita was thiis biig man.. !!
hehe so cute trying do hide, and they can't climb for shit so they always get caught in a corner towards a wall or a door panicing sideways with all 8 legs simultainously sliding the wall.. then just gives up and spreads their little claw arms for a hug of peace instead..
Walking after sundown, you don't have to listen to carefully to hear the rattling noise of small crab feet towards the concrete sidewalk.. ticitaciticitaci..
and if you don't close your door it doesn't take long before you have some pets hiding under your shoes, t-shirt or just camera or computer cable lying on the floor, peeking at you with it's little corinth tentacle eyes..
So I left one place full of crabs, for another..
but the first one wasn't as cute and funny as this one..
more like a stinger crab that lives on a place where birth control pills are sold in 2 for 1 deals,
if they aren't sold out already...
