I didn't have my glasses on at the time, but I did stop, and am pretty certain of the ID (at least the Pitt part).
Found a dead Pittuophis catefiner affinis by the side of the road while walking the dogs this morning. I walk this route every morning; it is new...but, its been COLD here! I don't get that. Longer and considerably heavier than my King hatchlings, it was still obviously young. Head was crushed, but otherwise, in good shape. If it is still there tomorrow, I'll bag it and bring it home for the road-kill "museum."
Sad for the snake.
