Young arboreal salamander

I’ve come accustomed to spotting California newts and the occasional slender salamander in the yard, but this is my first time coming across what appears to be an arboreal salamander.

last summer I would always see a frog poking his head out of the hole in the wood, looks like this guy has taken up temporary residency

Pacific gopher snake

spotted a healthy gopher snake cruising past my deck window earlier today. glad I got such a cool up-close view through the window without bothering him. he seemed to be about 4ft
