Snail





Look what we found slithering outside our house yesterday - a two tone shelled snail! I've never seen one of these before. My theory is that the original shell must have gotton broken and this is the new piece growing - what do you think?



Tory is full of snails, thousands of them, and rabbits and pheasants!

Your snail's shell is like one of those houses where they build the extension and the roof has 2 different colours of tiles! Great pic of him! or her! Oh or both, or is it just worms that are hermaphrodites?

Great pics Noelle. Haven't a clue about the snail (ugh...) never seen that before. Snapped a pheasant the other day myself. Standing on a neighbours wall. They seem pretty tame???
