Feeling Sluggish? by helenmoss

Feeling Sluggish?

The slugs are out in force after all the wet weather we've been having. I took this a couple of days ago but after a brighter morning today, it has been raining again and the slugs are back. There's even a drop of water on my camera lens in this one! I'm not a big slug fan, but I thought this one looked quite sweet -something about those eyes on stalks.
Wow, funny and cool, nice macro. And to answer the question, yes I am today!

Eeeewww! Those things creep me out! Although I love snails, weird! Great picture though, the water drops on the grass are so pretty!

Great shot, but, ewwww!

That slug looks so happily at home amidst the greenery and dew drops! This is a rather "shapely and interesting" slug (as slugs go!). While I've never encountered any here, those we have in CA are just little and gray...and you don't want to step on them by accident! ewwww...

Re: Another good writers block thing I used to do (sprained ankle is in rehab now, unfortunately) was to jump on my trampoline. Not as great a photo opportunity, though (:

Okay--I thought I was following you, Helen. Just clicked on Follow again, and it didn't go through. Took me several tries!

Excelllent detail. I do not think our slugs are as nice looking as yours, I will check next time I see one.

Lovely shot and detail - not sure if I would describe it as sweet though......

What a great shot, wonderful focus. I haven't seen a slug in a long time.

Yes you're right - this one doesn't look like so much like the evil beastie we know and hate - perhaps he had a bit part in Flushed Away as one of the singing slugs. Great close-up.
