My first Snake Count submission! A cute little rough earth snake. This one was very squirmy, so I didn't get any good close-ups.
A trash pile in a field in the city. Many snakes have been found here before.

Thank you! I almost missed it when I flipped the board. It blended in well with the ground!
wow! what a tiny snake! great capture -- both photographically and physically (must be hard to spot a tiny, squirmy snake like that!)
I know! This may have been a juvenile; this species probably could get a tiny bit bigger.
That snake is so small!
Ha!
I think that's my car driving by in the distance...
