Taken about two weeks back,she had young the following day. Only saw 4, and this is a new site so things look promising. I (and wife) only visited the site once a day as disturbance is getting to be a real problem here and at this time of year they and the young need all the un disturbed basking they can get.

Amazing stuff, for me seeing a snake is a fleeting glimpse every twenty years thing.
Well taken.

Thanks all.
Here's a couple of record shots of two of the young already basking at a day old ! Hard to getthe scale buta 5 p piece would about go on the head as a rough idea.
Andy. Fat female on top - not sure about the other.
Thanks again. Will be posting comments when I get on BB next few days.
Cheers
