Life is like a spiral of good and bad experiences.

You are never static.

You are either moving up or down the spiral.

The choice of direction is yours.

Snail Shell.

Snail shells are more than just beautiful patterns; they are nature’s own slow-release minerals. Rich in calcium carbonate, they fuel the microbes in our compost and, if left in the soil, serve as vital, ready-made sanctuaries for beneficial insects.

This Earth Day, let's remember that even the smallest shell has a grand role to play in the garden's cycle.

Well, pretty close and works well as a good tongue twister. Thought it would be fun to try to get a shot of these four, super tiny snail shells before the waves rolled them away.

This tiny snail was about 1/2 the size of my little finger nail.

The big shell is one of my old shells.

Well the little blighter started to come out of the shell and go a-wandering. Have not sighted him since. So somewhere in my kitchen I have a little snail.

Have to post and run for the moment. Just arrived home from a Sunday shift.

Sticks And Stones..

A couple of weeks back we packed up and headed for a local park, hiking deep into the woods.

I find that when I am surrounded by the wonderful quietness of the forest, I become acutely aware of the rustling of leaves and twigs as squirrels and other wildlife scurry about their day to day business. .

as we w2alked we could hear the dry ground crunching under our feet, as i looked closer i saw we were walking on tiny snail shells. all of them were discarded and none had any live snails in them. but this one was un scathed as it was burried in the sandy loam that covers the forest floor.

Thank you for visiting for marking my photo as a favourite and for the kind comments,

I find these empty shells all over the yard. It's too hot and dry for these little animals to survive long.

... on the Morrocan coast :)
