Another Adder
Another from one of my study sites. This female has been recorded for a number of years now and I can remember the very first time I saw her and exactly where she was basking..

Kind regards,

Brett :cool:


Canon 30D, Sig 150/2.8, HH

Quality! Can't you produce an interesting smell? Phil says you can.
Anything to get a tongue flick.

Another lovely adder head, Brett. Almost your trademark shot now. The flicking tongue will come I am sure.
