ENJOYING THE WARMTH

The first adders seen at the country park this year was by Andrew Neal when he visited the park on Monday 20th. Here one of his photographs he took of a male adder.
 
Four adders were enjoying the warmth just after mid-day on Monday.

Someone else enjoying the warmth on Monday was this brown rat in a bush at the park, peering down at Andrew as he took this photo.

A pair of marsh harriers was watched for fifteen minutes by Andrew quartering the fields along the East Mersea road by the Bocking Hall / Weir Farm area.


A couple of videos taken of the marsh harriers and also the adders taken by Andrew can be seen here
