Nice pics Tim,You really did get close to that grassie,I can see your reflection.
Me and the girls just got back from Wirral and just dropped in on our local grass snake site.We found 4 in 5 minutes and the girls got to touch one,next time I reckon I can persuade them to hold one.

I actually got so close to a grassy yesterday that I nearly stepped on the
bugger - in fact I did step on a branch that then pinned it (gently) to the
ground! One o'clock in the afternoon and twenty seven degrees - I wasn't
even looking

looking again Tim,has the snake got a decent meal in it? Scales look a little stretched.
