Sound up! Up at 4am for a beautiful dawn chorus walk at Holford, #QuantockHills #Somerset with @QuantockLPS, then breakfast at Combe House Hotel. Excited to spot a pied flycatcher, but the song thrushes and wrens were definitely on lead vocals! 🐦⬛💚

What a day to be an adder on @Quantockhills! 📷 We spent Thursday morning with a team from @hinkleypointc joining us to look for adders sunbathing on the hills. The group found a gorgeous female and a freshly sloughed skin, thanks to some keen-eyed surveying.
