It’s been raining and the molluscs are on the move, charging up the garden path, swarming up stalks and flinging themselves acrobatically from leaf to leaf as they circle in on Sketching Weakly’s prize Campanula Pendula. Which is now a sad-looking stalk.
The flies have been busy too.
Snails seem to really love tree climbing.
Hope the molluscs don’t include the evil Spanish Slug! I spotted one in my garden last year, but no sign of its progeny so far.
I’m almost afraid to look. If I hear any slugs saying “Ola!” I will quickly sprinkle salt on them.
Hello there, You have so beautiful paintings on your blog. It almost let me forget my anger when I see another Spanish Slug (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_slug) has eaten up the basil leaf or lettuce in our garden.
best regards, Michael
Maybe we need some sort of overexcited Spanish Hedgehog to go to town on the Spanish Slug. But we all know that would end in an unforeseen ecological disaster….
