Weather fit for snails.

Snails love rain. Hence they've all come out to play.

Pretty snail with stripes - just like the ones we used to play with as kids, building them habitats, making them crawl through obstacle courses and trying to feed them various leaves. I don't think parents and grandparents were too happy about that, but at least our snails weren't going to eat the lettuce in the garden.
In the backyard we've got them with red or yellow 'houses' and I'm glad that so far they haven't found my dahlia. We also discovered the tiniest near-transparent baby snail, only a few millimetres big. The little one was fascinated when it sat on his finger tip and stuck out its tiny head with its eyes on two long stalks.

This bigger one was climbing up a poplar.
