Only 260 areas in U.K. left with adder population. We could lose the species in 15 years. Pheasants a huge culprit in their decline. Saddening interview on @BBCr4today - such a huge part of our cultural heritage. A first adder nature reserve called for. Shooting needs regulating

One of the fiercest predators of berries youโll see and one of my favourite winter birds. The obliging pair of waxwings at Carlton Collville, last week.
