    Any chance we can have a few better photos. Maybe out in natural light.

    I'm no expert on Washington herps but it resembles a rosy boa.

    Well, it's a colubrid. Might be a garter or might not be. Probably is. I'd like a closeup of the face. And scale counts.

    I feel like I recognize it (as something other than a garter). But I probably don't.

    Looks ordinoides to me. Very odd coloring. Would love to see it in person. Where are you in WA. Port Orchard here.
