Drynan Lake, Horse Leech.
This spring we have been using a variety of local ponds with our Grade 9 aquatic ecology unit (Pond Study), some surprising things have been found like this 7 inch (at rest) long Horse Leech. For those that know me, I am kinda obsessed with leeches. Here is another picture taken that day… these are mostly Medicinal Leeches, coming in at about 6 inches.
