Hermit crabs have compound eyes made up of hundreds of ommatidia, each facing a slightly different angle, giving a wide visual field. Besides, the eye stalks can move independently of each other, rotating through 360°, allowing the hermit to look in multiple directions at once. (I could have used that when my kids were young!) #VancouverIsland #HermitCrabs #IntertidalInvertebrates #Invertebrates #MarineLife #DailyHermit #CompoundEyes
