Escargatoire 101

You had a good eye. A very interesting photograph. There is a difference between snails and slugs. Snails are an exquisite dish around here. Best wishes, Anton.

I’ll take your word for it Anton!
Thanks for visiting.

Thanks Füsun, glad you like it.

A fascinating scene and a new word for me. :-)

Confession time; it’s a new word for me too George, I had to look it up!!

Un beau rassemblement ! Bien vu et capturé !

Je ne suis pas sûr de la beauté, mais je n'ai jamais rien vu de tel auparavant.
Merci pour la visite Henri

Wonderful photo.

Thanks Don.

an outstandingand wonderful find!!

Thanks Gabi, glad you like it

Oooh, I've learned a new word Maggie..........although I had to google it to make sure you weren't taking the Mickey :-))

I have no idea (yet) how I'm manage to sneak it into a conversation though :-))

Anyway, this is a great find...........and a nicely detailed shot.

I love the collective noun for slugs...........it's a perfect description of how I see them!

When you’re amongst friends you mention this whizzo photographer you know of and her prodigious image of escargatoire!!!

I'll be sure to do that Maggie...............as if they don't think I'm bonkers enough anyway :-))

I’ve always been known as a bit bonkers - when I did additional psychiatric training to become dual qualified everyone said I would be right at home ...

Ha, ha......that's what I was told when I did my Psychology degree (late in life) with the Open University :-)))

Now that explains everything - no wonder I like you!!!!!

I'm a likeable sort of chap :-))))

Bien vu, un beau rassemblement !
Bonne soirée Magie

Merci Jocelyne, je suis content que tu l’aimes!

Impressive capture and gathering of snails!

I like to think they’re forming a political party - they can’t be as bad as any we have at the moment!

Ah! Terms of venery. What fun. How about a murmuration of starlings or a parliament of owls? What is that they're eating?

After the two collective nouns you’ve quoted escargatoire for escargots is so unimaginative.
As for their menu, the glue that stuck the reflector down? P'raps that’s why they’re stuck there ...

Great find wonderfully shown!

Thanks Judite, Glad you’re back!

Enjoy your lunch, Maggie! ;-))

With sweet potato chips (and a large G&T as it’s Sunday!!!)

They have done well to eat all that plastic Maggs ;-))
Nice capture!

Obviously hungry or hangry ….

What a bizarre place to gather. This is quite amusing.
