The Welly Gang

Katie, Malcolm and Gordon at Belhaven this afternoon.

Big Wellies.

We went out at low tide to try out my birthday present to myself - a £6 waterproof camera box constructed from a kitchen storage box, an ebay UV filter and some silicone sealant. After extensive kitchen-sink-testing, some extra sealant, and risking my precious camera, we went for it!

Amazingly, it pretty much worked and the biggest thrill was watching the crabs absolutely go at each other - vicious ? or amorous ? Probably both! The best of them is this one.

Malcolm took photos of me taking photos of the hermit crabs.

There's more of the children on Flickr.

What a lovely day we've had :)
