If the snail trail is continuous, then it’s a slug's trail. If there are breaks in the trail, it’s a snail.
I've never seen snail eggs...neat! Wish we would get some rain here...it hasn't rained in 6 weeks! Neat pictures!

ReplyDeleteHello Kelly, You have so many different snails there. They are very beautiful. So very interesting to know all about them. The sunrise looked gorgeous. I always marvel at the intricacy of those delicate spider webs. Did you know that you can seal a wound with clean spider webs?
ReplyDeleteMy kids love snails. They like to name them. You have such a variety where you are. We can only find garden snails.
ReplyDeleteSo many!
ReplyDeleteThey're beautiful... I can say that because they're not in my gardens!
