Does your "nearby resident" lives in the zoo or in the wild? Just curious...

Re: Adder
Those eyes... are looking into your soul ... and they found it delicious ._.
Anyway if you ever should need the name of the species, maybe when asking for an antivenom(< humour), the name is Vipera Berus

Re: Adder
Wow, great shot. He really looks angry. I'm glad we don't have any of those near here...at least as far as I know.

Re: Adder
Pit Vipers and Pit Adders are Crotalinae. Rattlesnakes are in the same family.
They are in Ontario.

I liked this line from the July article
You would think they would report them as soon as they happen.A spokeswoman for the Ministry of Natural Resources said the number of bites so far this summer is “unusual” — in general, people don’t report bites until August.
