A Skink, I Think

I was walking through the very wet trails today and found this little guy under a fallen branch. It was coiled so tightly that I thought he was a centipede, but he expanded with little legs and lizardly goodness.

I think it is a skink, but I'm not positive. I'm worse at identifying reptiles than insects, and I'm proving over and over again here that I'm pretty bad at identifying them too (not that I feel bad...there are a lot of insects in the world and they change dramatically as they age).

He's cute, tho, whatever he (or she) is.

Edited to say, looks like we have a Red Back Salamander.
