Dogs, Salamanders and Leeches - Smartphone Creature Macrophotography Photo Gallery - May 17th 2018

With constant rain outside Indigo is going absolutely ape-shiz trying to be let out to play in the mud... eventually we all went out and enjoyed the Spring afternoon full of rain and humidity.. we had a few things to do around the farm. And a few hanging potters we had to fill with flowers for the season.

As we went about, @kelsnm noticed that the lettuce growing in the farm was being devoured by some slugs... UGH!!! So we went ahead and harvested the lettuce and had it for dinner. Before it could all be eaten from us.. since I had no slug prevention at the moment.

I did however acquire today some diatomaceous earth which would I believe the slugs don't like, among a lot of other insects I have been noticing... need to protect my crops!

Salamander made the pool his temporary home.. or he will end up dead if he doesn't escape, no doubt.

The macrophotography shots really bring out the detail in the amphibians skin and how transparent it is. So neat.

Found the slug on my back after @kelsnm and I hopped out the Jacuzzi. Wonder how long it was on my back for.. and if it was drinkign my blood. Must be from all the rain recently.

Pay attention everyone... to the grand solar minimum.

Praying for Susan and her health.
