WHAT LEFT THIS BEHIND IN MY GARDEN?


Recommended Posts

A good one for PP-Chris.  I found this in the border the other day.  It looks like something you would pick up on the seashore, any clues? I have certainly never seen anything like it away from the seaside.

First impressions are that it looks exactly like ... what it looks like.

A snail shell.  (Just 'cos it's spiral doesn't mean it's come from the sea [:)] )

One family is Clausiliidae.  For more, go, for example:
