Crabs on the Cays

While strolling the trail on Sandy Cay we came upon hundreds of soldier crabs.
They live in abandoned shells, mostly the West Indian top shell, locally called the whelk.
They were all busily underway, though we're not too sure as to where they were going.
Also seen in abundance is termit nests. We learned in St. John that they are actually very good for their forest environment.
