After a brief glimpse of my first UK Adder last month, I got a better look at one in the New Forest.

After a brief glimpse of my first UK Adder last month, I got a better look at one in the New Forest. This was found during my first New Forest Smooth Snake survey, for which I am now trained up as a volunteer.

No Smooth Snakes seen, but this Female Adder (Brown zigzags, as opposed to black on a male) was a nice consolation.
