Calling all #malacologists! I spied this adorable #snail while weeding the other day; I didn't even know we had snails in Alberta. Seek kept thinking it was an insect, and the internet was only modestly helpful. Between Google Images, Wikipedia, and the government of Canada’s “Identifying Land Snails and Slugs in Canada” guide, I feel like my tiny mollusk may be an Aegoponella nitidula? Can someone more knowledgeable in #malacology, or even #ecology, confirm or deny? Thx in advance!

On Air Conditioning and Swimmer’s Itch
Reading Time: 2 minutesMonday we went for a run in the Canicule heat. For the most part we skirted woods where we could, and stopped twice at the same fountain to drink, splash ourselves, and recover from the heat. In so doing we cooled ourselves and stayed hydrated.
After the run we went to the Plage De Promenthoux for l’apéro, which was mainly chips and a drink or two. We also stood in the water for a group photo. “That’s a lot of shells” I thought. The bottom of the water was sandy with a few stones. It was obviously around 21°c.
I thought “We shouldn’t be standing in this water for so long, given the risk of duck flees at this temperature, and I was proved right, especially two days ago when I had an unbearable itch that made sleeping deeply uncomfortable. It also made sitting and more uncomfortable.
‘Puce de canard’ or Swimmer’s itch is caused by parasite larvae that live within aquatic snails. They are released in 21°c waters in depths from 0-50 centimetres of water if my memory is correct. The parasite larva are released by the host, and find human skin, and dig into it. The human body kills the larvae within 24-48hrs and then people itch badly.
With 29°c heat in a Minergie building at night the itch was unbearable. The next morning I tried not to scratch. I tried a frozen water bottle applied to areas that were itchy, and then after sun milk. This worked, but only temporarily.
When the itch is at its worse, is when the body is eliminating the remains of the parasites so there’s nothing to do, except wait for the discomfort to be over.
Exceptionally I did try one thing. I turned on the air conditioning on for the entire night, while I slept, and that worked, either because my body had finally vanquished the infection, or cooling calmed the skin enough for the discomfort to be lessened. I believe that air conditioning really helped just because it’s cool air. The pores close, and the itch lessens.
I was last infected by Puce de Canard years ago, so I am not doing badly. Last time I was curious, to understand what the issue was, in order to avoid future occurrences.
I went for a swim today, so the phobia is either not here yet, or I expect that it was a perfect storm that made me feel such discomfort two days ago.

Is there a hashtag for posting photos that could have been really cool if the camera had actually gotten the right thing in focus? #AlmostInFocus?
Anyway, here is a #Snail I met in #SanFrancisco in 2013 who seemed on his way to cross the sidewalk and 4th Street. Perhaps to get to Jollibee.

Painting of a snail from a photo I took the other day. Acrylics on paper. A6.
Still sick, but it feels good to get away from the computer a bit. Can only paint in short bursts so these mini paintings are a nice way of getting some progress anyway. ^^

One can be cruising (well consistently crawling) along when suddenly things come screeching to a halt...
Like I did on my bike in April (when the weather was sane here), to take this #snail shot.

A new drawing has been added to my shop, a little snail sitting on a mushroom. Snails may be a pest to some gardeners, but slugs and snails are key parts of the woodland ecosystem, providing food for many.
