Did I miss a conversation or are you asking bout the Banana slugs I have on
my web site?

Wait till Jan finds out that the old growth forest are completely dependant
on those slugs, they eat all the competition and are the major seed
disburser of plants in the old forests.

Better yet, if you put a strong light behind them and take a pic and look
closely, those are tape worms and mites that are on them too.........

Pic'n on a poor Banana Slug........

And if you don't want your lens slimed, leave a peanut butter sandwich 20
feet away, their favorite junk food.

Either that or put a copper wire around your stand. It's been a while since
I have heard of a Nanner on a camera lens, and the man that commented about
that was the photographer for the book, The Banana  Slug, his wife Alice
Cooper wrote.

Here in Cascadia, home of the Big Slug, we have a specialty: Slug  
Quiche, often affectionately shortened to the rather onomatopoetic  
"Squiche."

(Oh, did I forget the smiley face? :-)

Requisite OM content: they don't like sharp lenses -- shows all their  
wrinkles -- so be careful about setting your camera down for more  
than a few days at a time, because the slugs will crawl all over the  
lens front element, turning your prized Zuiko 90/2 Macro (for  
example) into a soft-focus lens.
