Robert's Ramblings

There's a bit of action down at Rapid Bay at the moment.

It seems that spider crabs are pairing off to do their thing. This pair of majid spider crabs ,Leptomithrax gaimadii seem happy enough to make a spectacle of themselves though I am not sure that the smaller female has any say in things the way he has her in his pincer like grasp!
