Spring Forward Ahead

Its Spring time and its also Daylight Savings time tonight as a write this. Very funny I know right. Which actually means we lose an hour of sleep tonight.

But the sun will be out longer now instead of earlier during sunset. Which means it will get dark at 8 pm instead of 7 pm.

I recently did a photo outing to the Duke Gardens. We are now able to identify the unknown rose that we photographed in January at Bolin Creek which is a Lenten Rose.

The Lenten Rose is part of the Buttercup family. The scientific name of this rose is Helllbrorus Orientals. This Lenten Rose plant is very cool to photograph

The song birds have started migrating back to south from their long journey and also the pollinators are becoming more active as it becomes more like spring weather.

Its looking like spring is coming and so St. Patricks Day is this coming up Thursday. Wear Green Everybody!!

The official Spring start date this year is March 20 in only 6 days from now! Wahoo!

If you have a chance to find TriColor Herons you should photograph them and they are just like the other waterfowl that can be found in central North Carolina .

I decided to use the jelly fish as my subject for this photograph during sunset conditions. This was also taken at Myrtle Beach when i was on vacation in 2019. T...

Turtle Behaviors Already!!

As you can see from the photos below, I was able to capture turtle behavior. These pond sliders were very use to people around Anderson Park. As you can see the turtles were fighting to sun on the same rock. They made quite the pair together to photograph. This was a very fun day to watch animal behavior in the wild. As you can see the turtles cooperated together and made peace to each other to sun together on this rock.
