DSC_2993_Sharp-tailed snake - a photo on Flickriver

            A co-worker caught this little cutie in his kitchen and brought it to work for me to photograph.  In spite of the cool weather, this is one fast, squirmy little bugger.  I'll keep trying to get a fully in-focus picture, before releasing him/her.

Kinradite slab added for color complement.  Quarter for size reference (or lack thereof).

Sharp-tailed snakes are vicious slug-hunters.
