If you saw my post last year i visited porthmadog n wales a place iv been many times looking for adders over about 8 years i think, never saw one, last year saw one on the sand dunes of the beach when i wasnt looking typical but was greAt, morning time i think, now im going back this year, any ideas where else to look, and anymore tips as this was just pure luck lol, i know early morning or evening, heaths, are sand dunes common for adders he was on the move i think someone said was just moving as he was very young. Also any good sites near to liverpool as possible? Lol maybe north cheshire?

Overcast days are quite good Phillip as the adders take longer to get up to speed. On a sunny day you will need to be out quite early. Good luck!
