Posted: 30 May 2007 Is there a cure for grass snake obsession? After seeing maybe one every few years through my life, last year I realised they were present on my local waterside walk, since when I have spent more and more time looking for them. After half a dozen sightings last year,and using this forum to learn more about them, this year I have already had over 40 sightings, I am starting to recognise individuals, and am starting to feel that a day without grass snakes is a day with something missing. Yesterday found me lying on the grass, oblivious to what passers-by might be thinking, getting face to face with a beautiful two-footer who didn't seem to object to my presence. Is there any hope for me? |

Posted: 30 May 2007 The only temporary fix in many grass snake locations seems to be when the stingers get so high that laying face down to get a closer look becomes unfeasible. Ouch!! |
