Found behind loose bark on a pine stump. This snake was very cold to the touch so I only examined it briefly before returning it to the stump. Tiny (like 10").

I was hoping to find a scarlet king, but I guess any snake is a pretty good find for January. I also found a dwarf salamander today (lifer!).
