As I thought, those animals also deserve a dedicated thread but couldn't find one, I opened up this one.
Post your photos of snails, mussels and other molluscs here and enjoy this sometimes a bit slippery topic
Here is a wonderfully posing Roman snail (helix pomatia), aka. escargot.
Last photo with a bit too much back focus, as the AF was more interested in the shell
R6m2@500mm, f/16m 1/500, ISO2000-6400
The high shutter speed was not because it was a racing snail , but because on that day I was focussed on birds and dragonflies
