Ah yes, I have such an abundance of these little suckers that I never see any veggies from my garden. This is a great shot of the little culprits.

Excellent. I love snails - whenever I feel stressed, nothing calms me more than watching a snail in a hurry. :-)

The garden where i previously lived was running alive with the striped shell variety when first moved in, avoided using slug pellets, just went out after dark with a torch and bucket and caught them. I could have started up a snail export business to France!. These are two excellent shots, I think I may have one in my gallery.. not sure which species.

Beautiful capture of this one; I had never seen the striped ones until I moved here, and we have tons of them!

Great shot and postwork on this image of the beautiful escargot, slowly negotiating its way across the lovely flora, A.

Great shot , I've seen quite a few of these plain ones this year I think the wet winter must have washed all the stripes off.
