A beautiful leaf snail was seen perching on flower and leaves again. Since it did not make a move, I decided to capture these photos with DSLR. I noticed from a close range, it was making move by a single muscular ‘foot’, lubricated, trying to avoid my shots. So, I had to find some good shots before the dark. Snail is gastropods, the mollusk with a single shell and soft body. It is actually a common pest in the garden, in the woodland. Even it may be slow but it can quickly crash the plants.
At glance, it was like playing dead, but when I moved the leaf, it woke up and show itself to my camera. Although, it did not make a lot of move, it does not mean, I could shoot easily. I did not want to have only shell with it inside, but I wanted it out, seeing the slicky body made a move.
