Taken at the expressway park a few blocks from our house. The water in the pond where I usually see lots of birds was so low on one end, and there were all these HUGE snail shells stuck in the mud. I walked out on the spongy terrain which was covered in the footprints of all kinds of birds. I picked up the prettiest snail shell I could find, shook the sand and dirt out and propped it on this cypress knee with the intention of getting a good shot of the snail shell. However, the overall shot made me laugh when I got it out of the can, so I'm posting it first! Looks like an alien eye periscoping out of the greenery to me! LOL! Thanks for viewing!

Because of the long dry period in nature snails have a hard time. These two snails did not manage to survive and there shells fell into disrepair.
Thanks for taking time to fave, comment and look at my work. I really appreciate.
Links und rechts neben dem Eingangsbereich in die Stiftskirche von Melk ist jeweils eine Wendeltreppe wie diese angebaut, die die Stiftskirche mit den Trakten der Abtei verbindet. So kann man beispielsweise von der Bibliothek in die Kirche gelangen ohne nach außen gehen zu müssen. Auf mich wirkte das Stiegenhaus wie ein kunstvoll dekoriertes Schneckenhaus.
On the left and right side of the entrance area of the abbey church of Melk is attached a circular staircase like this, which connect the church with the abbey sections. So one can reach for example the church from the library without the need to go outside. To me appeared the staircase like a artful decorated snail shell.

A land snail finds shelter in the side of a palm tree trunk. The hole is just big enough to squeeze into and it provides this snail with protection from the hot afternoon sun.

We concluded an extensive period of sunny weather (which coincided with confinement) in Denmark with some more usual freshness and even the first rain in a month. That's all it took for snails to invade the grassy grounds on the other side of the road.

This is the whole collection [a gift from a friend], out for an afternoon of enjoying the green moss. They were cooperative when it came to posing for pictures, I must say!
Have no idea if this is correct for the theme, other than shells seem to be popular in the group pool.
I did do a Google search, but was none the wiser!!
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites.
