It was lovely to come across a Giant Mud Crab (Scylla serrata) on Myoli Beach in Sedgefield. They do leave the estuary as part of their life-cycle and I hope this was part of the natural cycle, they are massive crabs and typically reach a carapace width averaging 28cm, a full grown crab can weigh up to 1 to 2.5 kg. Unfortunately they are very tasty and their population is under pressure. You do not want to be nipped by one either! If you come across any creature on the beach or anywhere please don't harass it as you may find a grumpy old photographer with a heavy tripod who will correct your behaviour!
