Our son Zac really wanted to see a Grass Snake, so we took him on a “Reptile Ramble” run by the RSPB at the excellent Arne reserve in Dorset in the hope of fulfilling his dream. It turned out that he didn’t just see one, but was able to handle one. This image shows him in action, looking somewhat apprehensive whilst he handles the snake. Image taken on 28th May 2011 using a Nikon D200. Settings were ISO 400, f10, 1/200th second.
