@@lotterhand I would love to find a hognose snake! In my parts, they're getting very scarce. Too much development in NC....McMansions and boxscores, etc everywhere.
Very cool! I also liked your black rat snake video. I grew up in MA and never saw a camel cricket until I moved to NC....had no idea they're in NY State. Back to the timber rattler: I hope it didn't have that horrible fungus that's killing so many reptiles....even cottonmouths down South.
Thank you! Not until I was an adult exploring rattlesnake country did I come across camel crickets! Unfortunately I, have observed snake fungal disease, but less frequently in recent years.
@lotterhand Living here not far from the Susquehanna River I see all sorts of cool things. I had a baby snapping turtle show up at my door lost one night in Sept a few years ago. I gave him a good headstart, and released him back into the wild. I have a crappy short on my channel of releasing him. If you watch it, sorry for my shitty videotaping skills 🤭 but the turtle was a champ. Never tried to bite me but I fed him with tongs because I like my fingers right where they are. Lol. He never looked back 😊👍 That's a picture of him on my profile picture, my favorite. I had just fed him and an hour later he was looking at me like food ? They can put a lot of food away at a time 🤣 He was a trip.
Good thing the sleepy snakes missed out on cute mouse on the right at 0:53 lol! 😂
Awesome!
I know you are anticapting and exciting Spring with the Timbers and other herps!
Spring is unfolding quickly this year! my goal this year is to find a March hognose.
Hognose snakes are the best. I have a western named Harley 🥰
Love the name! I have a couple of westerns myself. Hognose are my favorite snakes!@@metalmamasue3680

Your videos always deliver!
Nice, love to see the native critters. We have camel crickets here, too where I live near the Susquehanna River.
They can be quite common in spots! inf fact they frequently set off my trail.
