I see these guys on my morning walk.

Snail Bed and Breakfast

This fellow was enjoying a free breakfast this morning. I noticed he brought all his friends along.

I don't mind him cleaning up the old azalea blossoms, but when he heads for my vegetable starts, it's all out war.

Snail on the Window

Did you ever wonder what the underside of a snail looked like? This one made it all the way up to a bedroom window.

The next day his cousin showed up.

Sea Snails and Eggs

We were near the Mukilteo ferry landing during a recent low tide and saw these sea snails and their eggs. Fortunately, we had a zoologist in our group as I had no idea what they were. I'm a Whidbey Island native and have spent hours on the beach but I do think these were the first sea snail eggs I'd ever seen.
