Also keep your eye out for reminder e-mails and new events from SxARG nearer the time and on our website and social media.

Report on Weir Wood Reptile Survey at Weir Wood Reservoir

The Reptile wal kat Weir Wood reservoir was attended by 15.  Numbers of reptiles at Weir Wood have been relatively low this year and July tends to be a more difficult month to find reptiles.  The weather began damp and upromising but by 11am the tins were warming up. The first six tins hidden in waist high vegetation were unproductive, but the other two meadows produced a reasonable 'crop' of six grass snakes, which were enjoyed by us all.  However the highlight was probably the dozens of toadlets which were found around the reservoir edge. Thank you to Marcus Sanderson for the photos!
