Adders and Grass Snakes: A Love Story

<p>Adders are supposedly quite solitary animals, and I do often see them alone.</p> <p>But, if you want the best sunbathing spots, you have to be willing to share. Adders don&rsquo;t mind basking with other snakes if they have to. The two snakes above seemed quite comfortable together.</p> <p>The adder is the one with the black zigzag marking. Adders come in several different colours, but always have a dramatic zigzag along their whole body. Grass snakes are a greyish olive colour with lots of dark spots, and they have a yellow collar just behind their head.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/weeds-wildflowers/adders-and-grass-snakes-a-love-story-dbb1f6150ec6"><strong>Website</strong></a></p>
