Some days I feel like the Slug is my Spirit animal!

As I made my way through the garden while I meandered around on my way to deal with the animal's hay, I found this slug slowly moving along. At 40F the slug didn't seem to be able to move fast at all. Normally when they are touched they will contract quickly, but this one slowly contracted on itself. I went and did a few things before going to get the camera and lenses.

Proof of my getting dirty for the pictures.

The slug took a quick flight into the chicken yard where they pounced on it right away. Now that the plastic is up off the soil the slugs are having to find other areas to hide so they are a bit more transitory right now, probably in preparation for winter.
