A collection of 6 diaries about observing snails
The day is coming to an end before you know it, and you must have a lot of thoughts in your heart, which also means that you have to start writing a diary again. So what is the format of the diary? Below are 6 snail observation diaries that I compiled for you. They are for reference only. I hope they can help you.
Snail Observation Diary Part 1
I have a lovely snail. I like it very much and often observe it carefully. I found that its body can be divided into three parts: head, abdomen and shell. Let’s talk about the head first: its tentacles are very long, and the “black pearls” on the tentacles are its eyes; there are two smaller tentacles under its tentacles, and its mouth cannot be smaller. Under the small tentacles, it is more vivid to say that it is a slit rather than a mouth. Let’s talk about its abdomen: it walks mainly on its abdomen, which people call “gastropods”. Moreover, it walks very interestingly. It can attract objects like a magnet attracts metal, and then stretches its long body to crawl forward like a warrior. Moreover, he would leave a long line of mucus along the way, and he would poop a little from time to time to prove that he had "visited here"! People say that snails are divided into left-handed and right-handed ones. I found that my snail is Right-handed. Snail Observation Diary Part 2
A few days ago, my mother bought me a snail.
My snail carries a brown-black shell on its back, and the shells are wrapped around each other. A snail's shell resembles a tree's growth rings. My snail is almost four years old. For a creature that can only live six years, it is already middle-aged. It has a pair of long tentacles, and a pair of small black eyes on the tentacles. Its body is soft and sticky, and can be bent at will, just like plasticine. It likes dark and humid places, so I put it in the toilet room. It likes to eat fresh vegetable leaves. Sometimes he poops while eating! He likes to be active at night. During the day, it huddled in its little room and slept soundly.
My snail especially likes to stand on his head. It often climbs on top, standing upside down like a bat. Because I was afraid that the blood would not flow when it slept upside down, I would straighten it out with my hands. Sometimes it's so tight that I can't pull it off no matter how hard I try.
I like my snails. It's ugly, but it's cute and it brings me joy. I love it, it's my friend. Snail Observation Diary Part 3
Saturday, November 11th will be cloudy
My family has seven lively and lovely snails.
A snail always carries a giant spiral house on its back and moves very slowly. This reminds me of a lyric: "The snail carries the heavy shell on its back and climbs up step by step..." There are two pairs of tentacles on their heads, and the longer pair of tentacles also has a pair of tentacles. Black eyes like small dots. When they want to observe something, they will raise their heads, stretch out their long necks, and swing their long antennae left and right, looking around as if they are inquiring for news!
They are also very timid! Once, I accidentally touched a crawling snail with my chopsticks, and its head immediately disappeared with a "swish". Hey, why is there only one shell left, where is the snail? Could it be that he left the "house" and ran away after growing legs? I watched and thought. After a while, the snail actually got out of the shell, shaking its tentacles, as if to say: "Hee hee, I'm here!" Then it began to crawl forward slowly again.
Don’t think that snails are timid. In fact, they are also very crazy to play with. Oh! I also saw them playing stack of Arhats! They played together in small groups, climbing on each other's backs one by one, and some even climbed on each other's heads. Once, there were five or six small snails lying one on top of the other on the "roof" of a big snail. Probably because it was too heavy, this crooked "high wall" collapsed heroically. The little snail has a strong sense of self-protection. When it sees something bad happening, it immediately retracts its head into its shell to avoid injury. After taking a breath, they stretched out their heads one by one and crawled to find their playmates.
Look, are these seven snails in my house cute?
Wednesday, November 15th turned to light rain.
After school yesterday afternoon, as soon as I got home, I took some time to do "fitness activities" for some little lazy snails.
I looked into the snail's nest and saw three shrunken snails on the "roof" at a glance. As for their friends, some are walking, some are playing piggyback games, and some are eating delicious snacks. I tapped the shells of these three "little lazy bugs" with chopsticks, but they remained motionless. So I put them in a cylindrical bottle filled with water to see what they would do?
After a while, when I looked at them again, a miracle happened. The shrink-headed black cows stretched out their heads and stretched their necks very long. While they still stretched out their necks and paused for a moment, I quickly brought the ruler to measure. ah! Incredibly, the length of the neck is actually three centimeters and two millimeters long. Under normal circumstances, it is only more than one centimeter.
They must be too afraid of water, so they try their best to climb up. One of the baby snails was so small that it had to climb on the back of a big snail and let the big snail carry it up!
It turns out that if you put the shrunken snails in a bottle with water, they will still crawl out on their own.
The weather was cold on Saturday, November 18th
In the morning, I was still lying on the bed in a daze, and suddenly my mother shouted: "Come and see, what's wrong with the snail?" Is it out of its shell?" After hearing my mother's incredible cry, I immediately got up, put on my coat, and rushed to the hall to see what happened to the snail.
When I saw the snail, I was shocked. It turns out that after the snail took off its shell, the meat on its back fell to the bottom. When it crawled, it seemed to be dragging a big spiral stone behind it. It seemed to be very difficult to crawl. It was more difficult than crawling with a house on its back. Still hard work.
At this time, I also found a pile of small, round particles in a corner next to the snail, like small beige pearls. What are these? Could it be the baby born from the snail that took off its shell? Do snails shed their shells after giving birth to babies? Will a shell grow back after it sheds its shell? I couldn't help but wonder. Later, my father told me that crabs will grow back after taking off their shells. I guess the same is true for snails.
Haha, I want to play tricks on the snail again. See how it defends itself when it is in danger without a shell. Will it shrink its head? So I picked up the chopsticks and touched him next to his eyes. Guess what will happen? Let me tell you, it will retract its head as before, and its whole body will shrink into a ball, motionless.
Phew—my snail, you have turned into a snail with a shrunken head and no shell. I will continue to observe you and look forward to your growing shell again! Snail Observation Diary Chapter 4
After returning home from school this afternoon, my grandfather and I went to the garden to catch snails. We finally caught two small snails, and I carefully put them in a jar. Guilin, went home happily.
The two little snails each carry a round and large house - a snail shell. The color of the shell is yellowish brown and quite shiny. The khaki translucent body seemed to be wearing a yellow and white elastic garment, and it was extremely beautiful. The two tentacles on the head stretch forward, like Teletubbies' antennas, constantly "generating electricity" around.
It was fun for the little snail to eat. I put the vegetable leaves into the bottle and saw it slowly crawling towards its "food". Suddenly it stopped on the side of the vegetable leaves, motionless. I thought it didn't like eating, so I took out the vegetable leaves, but there were small holes on them. It turns out that they secretly eat "delicious food".
This is the little snail I raised. Snail Observation Diary Part 5
October 20th, Saturday, sunny day
In the evening, I saw several snails crawling on the wall of the yard, and their two tentacles kept swinging. I touched it with my hand, and its tentacles retracted immediately. How interesting! I decided to take the snail home and observe it carefully.
I put the snail on the table and observed its every move. I took a piece of cabbage leaf and put the snail on the leaf. It didn't move. I waited for a while, but it still didn't move. I thought: Does it know that I am next to it and doesn't dare to move?
So, I ran out to play with my friends for a while, and then came back to watch. Ah, at this time, I found that the snail's tentacles were stretched out and crawled forward slowly.
I wanted to know the crawling speed of the snail, so I stood aside and waited for a minute, and then measured it with a ruler. Heck, the snail can crawl seven centimeters in one minute. I also found a slimy trail left behind where the snail crawled, so weird! I quickly ran to ask my mother, and she said: "Snails like to eat tender green leaves, especially vegetable leaves. And they live in humid places, and most of their bodies are water, so they do this."
I put a few snails into the box, added a little water, and put a vegetable leaf. After ten minutes, I went to see them again. I saw the snails crawling around in the box, and finally they climbed to the edge of the box. Oh, it turns out the snail wants to escape! I immediately closed the box.
It’s getting late, I’m going to bed. Goodbye, snail, we’ll see you tomorrow. Snail Observation Diary Part 6
Today, I caught a snail in the Ophiopogon japonicus bush and named it "Xiao Xiao" because it was really small!
The snail "Xiao Xiao" is so cute! There is a brown shell on its back, which is like the snail's "home" for it to rest. There are also beautiful patterns on the shell! It has two pairs of small tentacles, one long and one short. The long tentacles have a pair of round, small eyes. If you don't look carefully, you really can't see them! I thought: The snail's eyes are on its antennae, probably to see the road in the distance!
The snail crawls very slowly. Why does it crawl so slowly? It turns out that snails crawl with their abdomen and legs in a wavy shape, leaving behind silvery white mucus wherever they crawl.
After observing it for so long, I thought it might be hungry, so I gave it a vegetable leaf to eat. "Xiao Xiao" moved slowly. I thought it was going to eat, so I watched with wide eyes. Who knows, it won’t eat it yet! But at night, I found holes on the leaves. By the next day, there were no leaves left at all. I thought, it ate so fast. Why does it eat so fast? Later, I checked the information and found out that the snail has a radula in its mouth and has many teeth, tens of thousands of them!
As long as we observe carefully, any problem can be solved. ;
