I heard this on the radio, but I don’t get it.
They said that a slug can bind to a wet leaf and a bird can’t pick it off.
It’s easy enough for a human to pick up a slug any time.
I think that maybe that part about the bird is maybe just in error.
Perhaps they mean that it’s way tough after it dries.
I’ll go with that. Dried slug slime is no joke.
