Beach Fight

Beach Fight

Perched on my favourite rock this morning, the silent sand 
at my feet suddenly erupted into action.  
This cluster of small hermit crabs renewed a battle over 
occupancy of an empty shell. 
It was quite a scrap.
There were about ten of them. 
One would manage to 
scramble inside, only to be hauled out 
and the fight would continue.

 They're probably still at it. 
I'll check tomorrow.
