A couple weeks ago I ran into this cute little brownsnake, _Storeria dekayi_, when out spidering!! Less than a foot long and quite slender (the first photo was taken with my lowest-magnification macro lens).
They are not rare, but I virtually never come across snakes in my wanderings and I don't think I've ever seen one of these before. I only even knew they existed because of lurking on /r/whatsthissnake! These small harmless creatures mostly eat slugs and snails.
What a special find. I treasure the encounter. (The snake, on the other hand, was mildly annoyed and moved away.)
