Scincella lateralis
He is between 2.5-3 inches long and quite thick all the way to his tail. His skin is shiny and has a red tint.
Spotted on a sidewalk, mid-morning, in a long-leaf pine wetland.
KarenPatterson, what you have there is actually a skink (and a lovely one at that)! Nice spot and photo :)
