I saw my first slow worm of the year last week on a cold day in London. Which reptiles, if any, have people seen in N.Europe so far this year?

Luckily most of our snakes are going into hibernation now. Haven't had a call out for a week now!!

Here in North Northumberland we had common lizard out and about in mid March, though they were a bit sluggish. Lots of Adders out last week.

Hoping to see my first slowworm this year, however I'm no good at spotting reptiles as I'm usually looking for birds!

3 slow worms in this Watford garden... one had to be saved from a Magpie's attentions.
