EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this vibrant snapshot captured by FLPA/Bob Gibbons, a lively group of Cretan Door Snails is seen taking their relaxation game to new heights on a sun-kissed rock. These European party animals have chosen the picturesque Imbros Gorge as their ultimate hangout spot during the delightful month of April. With their shells glistening under the Mediterranean sun, these adult snails showcase the beauty and diversity of Greek wildlife. The island vibes are strong as these charming gastropods enjoy some well-deserved downtime amidst the stunning Aegean backdrop. As members of the mollusc family, these clever creatures know how to make an entrance! Their terrestrial nature allows them to explore both land and sea with ease. And what better way to celebrate spring than by aestivating together? They've clearly mastered the art of chilling out while soaking up those warm rays. These pulmonate pals belong to the Albinaria inflata species and are part of a larger snail community known as Clausiliidae. It's clear that they're not just any ordinary snails – they're trendsetters who appreciate life's simple pleasures! So next time you find yourself exploring West Crete's natural wonders, keep an eye out for these stylish snails having a blast on rocks. Just remember not to disturb their fabulous gathering - it's all about respecting their wild antics
