Excellent start Tim
Braving the wind and rain tonight, I discovered it was really mild out. It didn't take long: Question: why is a female Smooth Newt a sort of a fawn colour? Answer: because it makes them almost impossible to see against waterlogged grass! She was not egg laying, that will still be a while yet, so I popped her out for a clearer picture. |

Great work, and happy new year. If there is sun at the weekend, I may be able to get a long-distance view of an adder.

Jeez Gemma I didn't realise we were expected to be out in sou'westers etc. to get our pix! I'm not saying I'm a fair weather herper, but I might wait till it is at least not chucking it down. All credit to you for being made of sterner stuff!

Well done Mark, Now that I really didn't expect on day 2
I keep hearing of January Adder sightings, I'm a bit more inspired now to check-out the local sites sooner rather than later.
