Facing Fears

A brief, early morning foray into our foggy and extremely damp garden brought my poor son face to face with this little beastie:

The kids were outside enjoying their new umbrellas in the drizzle when I saw my son jump in the air, practically shaking with fear. When I went out to see what the problem was he described it as "slimey with big eyes."
Being the good mother that I am, I immediately discarded these fantastic imaginings 
I immediately went searching the wet grass. And finally this is what I found. And I  have to agree with the poor boy, it's not a pretty looking thing. 

Tell me, what have you come face to face with lately that made you jump?
