More marked mollusc mumblings

Remember those colour-marked snails? 12 days later and another one pops up. After the rain and strong wind today, there was no point in running the traps tonight but I decided to have a mooch around the garden with a torch. Loads of snails everywhere, including Orange-stripe in roughly the same location in the middle of the lawn, and c1M away there was Orange-spot. Further proof that at least orange nail varnish does not attract Song Thrushes (not sure about yellow and pink!).

A few frogs loitering about as well - caught this one mid-blink.
