Hi Steemian,

For some time I have been following Tim Said's My Picture Day Challenge.
https://steemit.com/photography/@timsaid/mypictureday-challenge-round-22-winners-announcement-round-21

MyPictureDay is about going out, taking pictures and share your passion. It's about telling stories and capture moments for us. Fun and simple!

Today I have decided to finally participate. If you like photography be sure to check out his blog! https://steemit.com/@timsaid

Just the other day I was taking my dog on a walk. It appeared we had received lots of rain the previous night. It was clear that the rain had washed at least a 50 snails on to the side walk. I used this opportunity to take some shots for My Picture Day :) Enjoy!

Fun fact: For centuries, some species of snails have been part of the gastronomy of several European countries, notably Portugal, where they consume approximately 4 thousand tons of land snails each year and the famous Escargot in France.

Nawwww.... look at that little cutie!

A snail can sleep up to 3 years? That's incredible... I didn't even know they lived that long. I've always liked snails and the way they hide away if you touch them. That last photo with his shell in detail is so good! Well done young lady!

Thank you so much @aussueninja :)
