"Naturally solitary and slow paced, [the snail] had entertained and taught me, and was beautiful to watch as it glided silently along, leading me through a dark time into a world beyond that of my own species."

The Sound of a Wild Snail Eating was published on August 28th, 2010, just over ten years ago. Delighted that the book remains in print as it continues to glide into the future. May everyone, of all species, stay well and safe.

"We don’t need to strike out into the wild to feel close to the natural world and receive benison from it. From one place, we can witness the sweep and dip of the universe about us." Beautiful, fascinating essay and a snail mention too! https://t.co/Gqnri0uUvX
"Some terrestrial snails even 'gallop' by picking up the front of their foot and leaping forward, leaving behind a dotted slime trail....If frightened, one snail species will lift itself up on its posterior and speed-glide eighteen inches per minute." #molluskmonday
"A snail unhappy with its dining options or uncomfortable with the weather will go dormant......Like Sleeping Beauty, a snail may not wake until circumstances are favorable--though, like Rip Van Winkle, it may wake into a changed world."
