We weren’t expecting to see snakes on our walk! I think it’s the first time I’ve seen a snake in the wild, and today we saw two adders, the only venomous snake native to Britain. My wife doesn’t like snakes.

The first picture is a panoramic view made up of five images stitched together. Taken from the top of Colley Hill, the view looks down towards the pleasant Surrey town of Reigate. The panda-like animal is a Belted Galloway cow. It was another surprise on our walk, though less scary than the adders.
