The Rhön spring snails are only found here in the Rhön. I wanted to photograph one of the snails that cavort in this stream. But I happened to not have a magnifying glass with me, as the board informed me, the critters are only about 1 1/2 mm wide. There are miniature snail sculptures on the stone.
