Chuffed to bits with finally finding 3 Adders in 3 different parts of the Chase - finally! Patience rewarded. I'll keep an eye on these spots now.. Love the camouflage on these 2..

Didn't find any new ones, but kept tabs on these 2 throughout the year (see my Grass Snake thread) Good to see them slough, the remains stayed in the same spot well into September.Must get out there again soon..
