Great pond snails

Posted on 12th Mar 2020at 14:49 by NickP

Lymnaea stagnalis. Handsome creatures, but heavily implicated in the recent total disappearance of the frogspawn. Reluctantly, I culled 20. There are still plenty left.

See Austrian enthusiast’s article and Wikipedia article

I also spotted some eggs, which are very characteristic and seen in an image in the Wikipedia article.
