Spring is in full swing of things!

 Happy spring everyone. I am on the blog finally after a month after not doing it. I was on vacation for a week at Virginia Beach and then went to my dads for a couple of days.






The past couple of days, I have captured a variety of spring wildlife and flowers that have finally started. The Azaleas  are in full bloom now. 


I have finally have a duck and duckling family at my neighborhood pond this year. Last year, however, the mother and her duck eggs were killed by a coyote. But this year its different, they have survived this year.


This spring, I getting a butt load of photos of the ducks and ducklings . I have also been photographing the Great Blue Heron some.




Today,
 I caught the ducklings and ducks along with this American Snapping Turtle which was cool to photograph after all this damn rain we had these past 2 days .




I am ready for the darn pollen to finally be away so I I can work and plant flowers in my garden. I captured this pollen pod that exploded at my neighborhood pond earlier this week, which was cool to photograph. I did not photograph pollen exploding  pollen pod last spring but now I have this spring.

I am looking forward to capturing more subjects this spring and macro work as well.


I will post on a regular basis this spring. This winter was very slow compared to others. But we only got 1 snow storm this year.

 Welcome back to another post on my blog for this weeks Step into Nature. Let's see what adventures of the post we are going to do for this weeks Step into Nature. This a Tri- Colored Heron, Which I photographed at Pickney Wildlife Refuge while I was on vacation way back in Hilton Head. The Tri- Colored Herons a very cool waterfowl to photograph and they have different color variants compared to the Great Blue Herons found in Central North Carolina, where I live. 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 . This is a Jellyfish, which I photographed at Myrtle Beach during sunset conditions. The photograph came out really cool. Jelly Fish are very interesting subjects to photograph at local beaches.  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...
