Description
This is a beautiful nonvenomous constrictor snake found in the desert southwest of the United States. They are crepuscular, nocturnal and good burrowers. I found this one near an arroyo in the middle of the night in the Sonoran Desert of Arizona about 50 miles southwest of Phoenix. The photo was slightly modified for an artistic effect.
