I just call him “holy heck”!
Another night I can’t sleep so
decided to pop outside for a few minutes. I had just stepped out the door when
I spotted this not so little fella.
He was sliding his way across the decking and making good time about it too.

He is a Limax Maximus, aka Leopard slug. The
adult slug reaches 10-20cm, this Max was about 17cm long.
I hope he isn’t planning on nibbling my plants, one sitting and they would be gone.
Wiki tells me a pair will hang from a tree on a thick string of mucus to mate...Boy am I glad I wasn’t standing under THAT tree!
Anyways, here is some pics of this
impressive little guy, too bad I had to wait until
1.15am to see such a
handsome sight.
