Sutro Baths at sunset

Had a lovely evening visit to Sutro Baths, the first time I'd gone with the singular purpose of making observations.

There were about 100 by-the-wind sailors stranded on the beach, in and around a similarly-sized crowd of gulls. I walked over to the rocks along the north side of the beach to take a closer look at the small waterfalls and pools and see who was living there (guess who: California mussels! Various crabs!). Having never photographed a crab before, I made several attempts. As it turns out, crabs are both shy and fast - I was only able to clearly photograph one, and I don't think he appreciated the experience nearly as much as I did.
