Saw this freshly laid greyish grassie in Epping Forest today - quite early I reckon, at least for this neck of the woods.  Anyone else seen eggs/ freshly laid females?

Nice looking snake!-looks similar to some of the Spanish forms I've seen.

I think that despite the late cold Spring that the warm sunny period over the last few weeks has given lots of basking opportunities and the females have "caught up" as it were.-For the midlands at least.

I'm finding pre-lay sloughs at the moment locally.

Regards.

Stuart.
