Feeling Sluggish

While waiting for folks to arrive at minyan this morning, I noticed a very healthy looking slug in the mud near the edge of the building. And by healthy, I mean positively gigantic (for a slug, anyway). It was beautiful and hideous at the same time. Turns out, slugs are really hard to photograph.

They may be slow, but they can hold terrifically hard to capture positions. Still, I had to try.

You might be thinking, "oh wow, a post about slugs, that's a first." Not true, back in 2005 I was just as enamored with these curious little animals.
