I've rescued so many bees out of water troughs over the years. I've also rescued frogs out of a bowl I keep outside for mine and other passing dogs. It's an ancient large and deep pot and I found a couple of frogs in there who couldn't get back up the slippery sides when the water got low. There's now a large stone in the middle and I've not found any more. Adders will only have a go if you take them by surprise. I used to see them sunning themselves on stone walls but as I was on a pony they took no notice of me otherwise they would have been long gone. They are part of the 'rich tapestry of life' we are so lucky to have around us.
