Adders
are often mistreated by photographers as they get pulled, pushed, and
pinned down on all manner of props. I'm happy to say that this
adder is wild and was not disturbed for the photo. Photos cropped at the sides only. Forest
of Dean, UK, March 2008.

Back
in 2000 I did an assignment for BBC Wildlife magazine to
document a year in the life of wild grass snakes in an
Oxfordshire forest. This was one of the photos I took at a
dead Beech tree during the mating season.
