Large Grass Snake

Unfortunately deceased but an impressive animal at 33 inches long. Also check out those tiny teeth. This is the second time I have found a dead grasssnake here. The first time in 2022 I had seen the snake alive in the field and the next day something had predated it. This time the snake was near the barn in the rough lawn we have and whilst it clearly had a wound it was difficult to know how it got there unless maybe a Buzzard had dropped it. A Buzzard had been around the last few days but they usually get harried by the Crow owners of this place so that is one possible explanation.
