A duck's favourite meal, a gardener's greatest enemy and a favourite snack for a lot of people!

FROM WIKIPEDIA:
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Mollusca
Class: Gastropoda

The name snail applies to most members of the molluscan class Gastropoda that have coiled shells. Snails are found in freshwater, marine, and terrestrial environments. Most are of herbivorous nature, though a few land species and many marine species may be omnivores or carnivores. Other gastropods, which lack a conspicuous shell, are commonly called slugs, and are scattered throughout groups that primarily include snails. While most people are familiar with only terrestrial snails, the majority of snails are not terrestrial. Snails with lungs belong to the group Pulmonata, while those with gills form a paraphyletic group.

Hi Lurdes,
Yes, we both posted congregations of similar creatures. Well presented, your snails are quite varied in colour, and let's hope they did not end in an expensive restaurant as meal. (No such danger expects my bugs, unless there is someone with really excentric culinary tastes) :)
Regards,
Tibi

Not MY favorite snack :-(.
Excellent capture. Great sharpness and details.
Wonder if there is anything left of that plant after?

Parabéns e obrigado por compartilhar.

Até breve,

Hi Lurdes, Like a high rise apartment block! Well seen and captured, Many people would just walk on by. Great light and dof brings out the best in these slimy creatures (although I do enjoy escargots):-) Lesley
