Snail on Wild Carrot seed head

Snail on Wild Carrot seed head
A very small snail on a Wild Carrot seed head.

Better viewed large I think, as it is well camouflaged.

What an awesome picture Keith! Until I read the title and note, I thought it was a lot of creepy crawlies, but then saw the snail with such great detail and the carrot seed head, I would never have guessed! Absolutely amazing shot!!

A wonderful capture! I also thought at first that it was full of small insects. The little, green slug was clearly seen once I viewed it large.
