Very disappointing to see so many dogs running on the beach today, especially during this low tide. This is a time when nature lays out the buffet for wildlife and it is cruel to have dogs disturbing them. You have to wonder what the owners are thinking, or maybe they are just empty headed. Keep your dogs on a leash and off the beach.

I agree! What jerks. I saw so many dogs out there today with no leash and under poor/no voice control (looking at you, owner/walker of a husky named Luna).

In regards to the snail picture…we have seen A LOT in our yard this year too, why is it the moist weather we’ve been having or just a prolific year for them??? My poor Hosta’s are getting eaten alive!

So many snails! These critters (and slugs too) have interesting lives, they are courageous little explorers, with fascinating mating behavior.

RE: Snails…My Red October Hosta is SUPPOSED to look like this one but the snails and slugs have another idea! I’ve put pennies around it before and its held them off, I guess I’ll be doing again.

Sorry, comment time is over.
