this was great! the snail race had me laughing (thanks to your commentary) but your ending line did too! :)
A nice commentary, the snail doing a mile, great photos.
Andrew, this is beautiful! Great photos and great comments!
Clever shots--you must have been very, very patient to get them!
That's what you call going flat out .... It put a smile on my face ... Very cute.
Great series of shots, Andrew. I enjoyed the snail olympics :-)

❤♡ Impressionante como ele está camuflado!!!
Essa série ficou maravilhosa... imagino o tempo e a paciência que você teve para esperar ele movimentar.
Boa semana!
Beijos.

LOL! Now that was funny! No doubt you had the shutter speed set as high as it would go. ;-)
But what was the goal? Or was it just the thrill of the race? :-)
great photos Drew, you'd wonder how they can slither over tough territory like that at all. I don't have them in my garden; some small slugs now and again but the blue-tongues must devour them all
I'm tired from watching! I hope you're alright after that exciting garden event!
This is a great series!
These are really nice. You've got some cool snails in your area. I'd love to see these guys around my garden:)
Lol, I used to love doing this with my two pet snails when I was a child!
Sweet story - I love it! And your close-ups!!!
But I think it looks like a winner !
Just found your blog and enjoyed going through it...Lovely captures and I enjoyed and smiled throuh each shot.Thanks for sharing!

this is amazing, i LOVE IT, really I do. I also love the picture in my mind of your crawling alone snapping away. watch out you are turning into a MadSnapper.
Fantastic set of photos! I've not been able to show any of our native snails on my blog so far,they seem to be so scarce,and the invasive Giant African Snails are a completely different story!
Andrew this is a wonderful series, you must have been using high speed shots.
What a very cool sequence! Snails are such amazing animals.
Looks like he's in great training but if you want to get into serious snail-racing, you will have to invest in a pair of tilers' knee pads.
What fun ... and what an energetic little snail. He must have a destination in mind. Hope your knees recover for another day of racing ...

I had to come back to see this series Andrew and I adore it. How clever and also the images are such wonderful ones~
Funny photos and commentaries :)
I liked it :)
LoL... I don't know what's funnier, the snail race or the image I have in my head of you crawling on your knees following it! ;)
Fabulous! YOU are the winner for these photos! Nice job!
Great photos, and commentary!
