Hognose snake - found by the cross #2, originally uploaded by Camp Naturalist.

Some of the bethany christian freshman class found this hognose snake when they were out for a team building day here at camp. It’s only about 4 to 5 inches long. It looks like it just ate a toad. It’s pretty plump.

I’m riding on a golf cart when I spot this 2 inch long crayfish crawing in the sand in the main parking lot of camp. This is quite a surpise. I guess these creatures are able to get oxygen from the air? I thought they got it via gills? I’ll have to check this out.
