Adder or Grass Snake? Neither it's a slow worm
Adder or Grass Snake? Neither it's a slow worm
I am hoping that fellow geographers can help me identify this snake. Sorry I forgot to put anything to scale it but it was about 50cm (20") long.

Identified as a slow worm in less than fifteen minutes (see discussions)
