Sweet Natives

Found these little guys on Whidbey Island, beneath someone's wood pile. Just wanted to share these little guys!

I'm not too good at identifying ones that don't live near me...are those ensatinas?

I believe they are Ensatina e. oregonensis. Cute little guys!

I'd agree with them being ensatina e. orgonensis. They seem to have a pretty far range. I don't know if their area map includes Whidbey island, but it certainly makes the most sense to me. Good find! Ensatina are very interesting.
