Wasn't meaning to post today but started my new regime this morning and managed a cheeky 2.7k run - it was beautiful out there - love autumn ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ‚๐Ÿƒ

Found this little fella on the path basking in the sun - he was a beauty and fortunately the dog didn't seem very interested in him ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

I presume that is a grass snake taking it all in his stride as you went past

Glad you are back in the groove and enjoying your running! That snake was there on my behalf sneaking a look at your training regime so I can keep up! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Wow, judging from the shape of the head and the tail, I'd say it's an adder. Very interesting encounter indeed!

I thought it was too but it's not a great shot and I was trying to keep running as I took it - plus I didn't have my glasses on ๐Ÿ˜‚

Blimey, how lucky were you to see one of those, your footfall must be featherlite! Perhaps she was a bit on the cool side and not warmed up enough to whizz away!

Great pic! Nature is awesome!

Edited after seeing tortoisegirl 's note below, changed the 'he' to 'she' ๐Ÿ˜„ - wouldn't want to be rude to a snake......๐Ÿ˜‰

According to my son, who is on his way to being an expert, it is a female adder. Lucky you!
