Description

Tiny snake, about 3 inches long; see the yucca seeds for size comparison. When I photographed it I thought it was a skink. Only later looking at the photo did I realize it was a snake. The longitudinal lines ought to rule out Western Groundsnake but I am provisionally identifying it as such.
