Very small but fast. He seems scared but curious. He had tan and white fur. He was hard to follow and photograph but almost seemed excited to find whatever he was looking for! I wondered if he was cold or how the changes in weather were affecting him. Was this affecting his food supply or home. Since everything was covered in dead pine needles I wondered how this affected the course of his daily life! Since I couldnt get a good enough photo of him here is my drawing!

So fiddler crabs are attracted to blacklights too... (or maybe they like the insects on the sheet)

Blacklighting on the open trail in the Deering Estate North Addition Preserve. I had two sheets set up and this one was facing the mangroves near the end of the trail. I had another sheet set up more towards the beginning of the trail facing some remnant saltmarsh habitat. I was using cheapy DJ blacklights powered by USB battery packs (the kind used to charge phones).
