Took this pic today ... Southwest WA in the Willapa Bay watershed.

Any idea what it is??? I can identify all the rest from today, just not this one and I have no easy access to a guidebook until Wednesday when I'm back from the field. Gotta loves uploads via cell-phone...

Looks like a Northwestern Salamander (Ambystoma gracile) to me. Native to the Far West Coast from Cali to Wash.
