Banana slugs come in yellow, like a ripe banana, in spots like an over-ripe one, or all black like a mushy banana. The name suits them, no matter what colour they are.

I'm having to moderate all comments because Blogger seems to have a problem notifying me. Sorry about that. I will review them several times daily, though, until this issue is fixed.
Also, I have word verification on, because I found out that not only do I get spam without it, but it gets passed on to anyone commenting in that thread. Not cool!

One word, Susannah: COOL. 😀 Slugs around here are a boring brown/black color. Interesting to watch, but not as pretty as your banana slug.
ReplyDeleteHi, Susannah. I've always been fascinated by big slugs. Banana Slugs sound wonderful. Around here our largest is the European Leopard Slug. Patterned with varying stripes and spots, it can be a rather handsome creature.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly does look like an overripe banana … I’ve seen more than my share over the years, both on the counter as well at my feet in places where I try not to slip when I walk. :)
ReplyDeleteMaria! Nice to see you!
