out of my zone, but I'd say they'd be cherry slugs. Search the forum for more info from past years.

Thats definitely pear/cherry slug- its affects most of my prunus every year (except the apricot...), I use pyrethrum successfully but you can apparently also throw some wood ash or other dusty material over the tree which dries them out.
