I'm a Fish!
Went snorkeling on the 19th of Nov off an island near Olympia Wa ( I know burr) but I found it very odd that the big male rock crabs if not carrying a female then they where carrying a rock. Generally speaking the female would be about 2 to 3" smaller then the male and same would go for the rock. Anybody know why this is?
 
We laughed too over the same thought. Anybody ever saw this before?
