While surveying the muck flats at Penn Cove, I noticed one of the Horse clam long necks gyrating wildly
with something sticking out of its siphon. Upon closer examination, I found that it was a Pea crab, which
usually lives inside the clam. This looked like the clam is trying to get rid of the crab. I asked Greg, our
"in house" crab expert, what was happening there :

Thank you Greg !
