Diadophis punctatus
A common ground dwelling snake that feeds on worms.
Forest with rocks, glades.
Very cool. Eastern Ringnecks are becoming fairly rare anymore. They're a protected species now, I believe.
These guys were found on warm day in late February, under a board in my yard. I assume they were emerging from hibernation. They stuck around a couple weeks then dispersed.
That's awesome Noah! Did you lift up a rock or a board and find them all there? I did that once and it was so cool to see!
