This shot falls into a category that I should create entitled “all creatures great and small.” It qualified for lens time because I’ve never seen a slug this color before. Have you? All the ones I’ve seen have been that sluggy shade of yellow-green that defines a banana slug. This slug looked like it was dressed up in formal wear, ready for some high class slug event. Maybe the slug version of Audrey Hepburn in “Breakfast at Tiffany’s.”
Maybe you have found a new species. 🙂
My mind went with Andy. I was thinking it’s a new mutation; may grow huge and take over the world. Well, one never knows about such things.
You’re exactly right in your comment on Ocala. Funny thing is the guy who built the house was on the HOA board! 🙂
Black slug – found in northern Europe AND the Pacific Northwest.

It’s so black!
I am not a slug aficionado, but I can unequivocally say that this slug is butt ugly. Black or not.
Must be a black-tie event.
