Just putting my dustbins away and noticed this amorous couple. By the time I came back out with the camera, they were reaching the end of the coupling, so this is the only shot. Beforehand, they both had their white appendages reaching between them.

Lovely shot of the slugs - quite difficult to get a decent pic because of the slime reflecting with flash, but this is nice :-)

I know a lot of people dont particularly like slug and snail shots but I think they make for great photos.

You should have seen it a couple of minutes earlier when I has full frontal genitalia. I've never seen slugs (or anything slimey) mate before.

Trouble is of course, there's yet more slugs to eat up all my plants. Little slimely sods!!

I would have done better, but they were just about done mating. The subsequent shot had one of them breaking contact and just about to swan off.
