[sage5]

I’ve seen adders at the Watch near Duns and almost put my hand on one whilst climbing up a steep bank down at St Mary’s Loch.Thats it though,never came across them anywhere else.

I have seen loads over the years and I still nearly s..t my self when I go to put my foot down and it's below my boot

Seen a few bumble bees this week venture out in the cold. Today was sun for 15 mins then blizzard for 15 mins and I still saw a couple about. All the flowers that bloomed last week have wilted. Not a good start for the birds and bees.

 

[Wee Jimmy]

I’m still seeing the bumble bees but no honeys around in this cold snap.

The willows by the dam at Colliford were fair buzzing with honey bees up on Bodmin Moor the other day.

I've seen plenty of ladders in my club lochs in Argyll. Beautiful creatures. Just leave them alone.

It's fine to walk up them, it's the snakes you need to be careful of...
