how do we feel about very small snails?
many land snails are very small, even some smaller than these, but they’re easy to miss even if you’re already accustomed to looking for tiny invertebrates.
these are different Vallonia species but I’ll need a different angle of the shell for a good ID. At ~2mm, both are full-sized adults; you can tell by the peristome (lip) at the aperture of the shell!

For context, me and a few of my fellow crows on Phil’s Discord had this idea of “What if there were Minecraft crows that were specialized and adapted to live in different realms/biomes?”
And now we have End Crows 💜
Transcript & closeups below:
END CROWS
A guide by Philza Minecraft

Largest of all crow variants
Thinner with longer legs (LANKY)
Wings & feathers adapted for silent flight
Sharp serrated beak for eating chorus fruit
BEHAVIORAL ADAPTATIONS:
Social! Seem to flock in large groups
Allergic to water (like an enderman)
Enjoy taking dust baths!
Hoarders of shiny things (have a weird obsession with spoons for some reason?)
Prefer dark environments
Nest in End cities/trees
OTHER NOTES:
Purple glowing eyes
Feathers have an iridescent purple tint
Surrounded by particles
DO NOT MAKE EYE CONTACT!
Tattered fringe feathers
Longer legs
Velvety down feathers on legs & wings absorb sound frequencies!

“you know i find humanity to be a bit…foolish as it were. they let anything into their homes, into their lives, as long as its cute, as long as its a little bit friendly. you know in nature colorful animals are typically a sign that they are poisonous. they are dangerous. I guess somewhere along the line humanity lost the instinct to avoid these creatures. unfortunate for them. fortunate for me.”
the robot reaches out its hand and points, its eyes turning into crosshairs “do hold still for me. I don’t want to make a mess and a massive waste of time and ammo.”

DBD but Monster High. If I had to have this in my brain the rest of you have to deal with it too.

Alan! Alan! Al? Alan! Wait… is that Steve?
The key to survival for schooling fish is, you guessed it, staying in school! When you look exactly like a few thousand of your closest friends, it can be difficult to pick you out of the crowd—and that’s the point.
By blending into a shimmering, swirling fish tornado, visual hunters like tunas and sharks can’t focus on an individual target, allowing each anchovy to disappear in plain sight!
