Toadstools ... again!

After tidying up in the garden today we noticed a pleasant little clump of toadstools.  We didn't manage tio get any shots of them until it had gone dark.  I used the 50mm lens with on camer flash and a second flash unit firing towards the camera in an attempt to fill in the very dark background shadows and perhaps give a more 3D effect to the shot.

As I mentioned earlier, it was pitch black outside and only when we looked at the photo did we see the slug!  Did you spot it yet?  Take a look at the second shot below.

It's a slug!

Well, I now know at least one of the creatures that's devouring my toadstools.  Coming home tonight my daughter noticed a slug near the toadstools.  I quickly grabbed the camera and got a snap of the culprit!
I'm not altogether certain what type of slug this is.  We see more snails than slugs in general.  I'm also not convinced this creature is the one that has left the teethmarks ... but perhaps it did?  If you know more about the creatures that may be eating my toadstools, perhaps leave a comment.
