Norman the Newt

I made a new friend this week, Norman the newt. I found the poor common newt in the middle of the road one night this week and initially thought it was dead as it was stationary/very still with two legs sticking up into the air. First newt I've seen.

Here comes Norman

It seemed to revitalise when I picked it up, maybe it was the heat from my hand. I wanted to keep it under the bed (Chris Packham style), but released it into a suitable area near to the Church yard near some water. I miss Norman, hope I'll see him again one day.
