Branton Ponds 27th February

The day started very cold at Branton but by lunchtime the sun felt warm on the back,with this in mind we went to check the ponds for Adders. We have seen them as early as 14th February so the 27th wasn't out of the question and we were not disappointed for there on a sunny bank we found not one but two basking in the mid-morning sun,hopefully more will appear over the coming weeks.
