My "Kermit" Crab-Catcher

Toby and I discovered that hermit crabs are very easy to acquire at our local beach. Toby called them "kermit" crabs for a little while. We even brought a bucket full home one time. They didn't last through the night, sadly.
But we've spent our last two trips to the beach searching the shallows for these little guys. Then we put them in a bucket at the shoreline and Toby tells all the passersby about them. All I have to do is stand in the water and feel them crawl across my toes and reach down and grab them. Kinda creepy, but it keeps Toby occupied.
