Arriving home yesterday lunch-time after a shopping trip, was just driving up the lane before you get to our house and saw something which I thought was a branch lying in the road. It then moved and I sat in the car waiting to turn into our drive watching. It crossed the lane and disappeared into the hedge. I did get quite a good look at it and I think it may have been an adder? It was sort of greyish colour and had markings on it's side, like a triangle I think. Yuk.......I don't think it was a grass snake but I'm no expert. It really gave me the willys and dh didn't help when I spoke to him on the phone last night because he said that they can kill a dog (we have three dogs).
Anyone know about adders - I know very little and am feeling quite nervous about this.
