Scattered Gardener: July 2010
http://scatteredgardener.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, 10 July 2010. Aquatic snake at RHS Hyde Hall. Great excitement by the lily pond at RHS Hyde Hall near Chelmsford, Essex last month when P spotted, and was able to photograph, a swimming snake. It was a gorgeous hot June Saturday in Hyde Hall's Rose Weekend, which we were visiting with Surrey Organic Gardening Group. In the first photo you can just see the snake on the left; it seems to be having a snooze in the shade of Gunnera. At the edge of the pond. Links to this post.
