Since moving to our property in the north Kawartha Lakes region a year ago I have been waiting for the day we find a hognose....I am failrly new to Ontario and had yet to see one in the wild....and we look alot. Yesterday it happend!! Jason H came up to visit, and go snake catching with my 5 year old, Brodie. (Jason is Brodies hero...lol) Well, I have a few big rock piles in my field .... always a good place to find about a dozen garters and milksnakes! We are NOT short of those! Anyways Brodie and Jason were going through one of them and found two big milksnakes, a big garter and a HUGE HOGNOSE under the same rock!!!!! If anyone was watching or hereing us, they would have though we struck gold!! LMAO!! Brodie and I were squeeling with joy and Jason, had his hands FULL of snakes!! I think he was in shock he was so happy! He said it was the biggest hognoes he had ever seen. What a find!! and in my own backyard! WHoohoo....lol.
I will let Jason step in here and tell you more about our snake catching day.... I am sure he want to brag alittle too...lol
:P
ANYWAYS....Here it is.....
I have posted more pictures of it in the Venomous gallery.
