Diadophis punctatus
Small snake, black or gray in appearance. Distinctive ring around neck matches belly color varying from yellow to orange. Primarily feeds on salamanders, worms and slugs.

Found this little snake while digging a drainage system around our house. Lots of rocks here on the plateau and these little snakes love to hang out in them!
