Whatever next? Here is a little snake - a juvenile grass snake, and it's in my bee skep!
My daughter spotted this grass snake in our "Bees and Honey" display tent during the recent Heritage Open Day. It was about 20cms long and could move surprisingly fast. Being concerned the snake might get trampled we gently shooed it into the skep and moved it out of harm's way.
Note: A "skep" is a basket used for catching swarms of bees.
