After the Rain

Yesterday afternoon it rained incessantly. I collected 113 of the above from the garden.

  1. Lovely shell, but they're pesky little devils aren't they?

    My mum used to throw them over our wall into the next door neighbours garden - He probably threw them straight back again, that's why she could never get rid of them :0)

  5. Oh those sneaky snails! We have been lucky this year to have a pair of thrush in the garden and they have eaten nearly every one of the snails in the last couple of months

  14. Wow that is a lot! I thought we had loads in ours. Miss P and I collect them in a bucket and release them in the field. I can't bring myself to put pellets down.

    Take care
