Banded Snail (+PiPs)

I was moving a pile of old bricks from a corner of my garden and found this little beauty. I put it on a leaf to take a photo and then returned it to the garden.

It was moving very fast, but I managed to grab two more photos, which are in the PiPs if you fancy looking :-)))

Oh lieber Keith,dann hast du heute schon schwer schuften müssen,um diese hübsche Schnecke zu entdecken,sie hat aber auch ein sehr schönes Häuschen,das sie mit sich rumschleppt,super hast du diese Strukturen in diesen Häuschen festgehalten,das ist immer schön,dass du deine Motive dann gleich wieder in die Natur gibst,aber sie wird es dir danken und wieder mal vorbei kommen,tolle Aufnahmen hast du von deiner Entdeckung gemacht :))

Wünsche noch ein schönes Wochenende,liebe Grüße Güni :))

My friend, you make the ordinary things about us quite special. I know nobody else who could make a snail look so attractive. Very well done.

Fast ! snails are not known for their super speeds :)

Für die Gartenbesitzer bei uns derzeit ein rotes Tuch ;-)) Dennoch eine sehr schöne Serie dieser Schnecke. Sehr ausdruckvoll in der Zeichnung. Anerkennung für die blitzschnelle Reaktion, weitere Bilder anzufertigen ;-)))
