Is Fall Every going to show up this year?

Hey Everyone it Al From the Fall studios just kidding (hahaha).

Does anyone think fall is coming or not this year to central North Carolina and are the fall colors coming as well?

So far it does not look like a great fall to photograph the fall colors so far but Central North Carolina has been in a drought for several weeks now.

Everything here in Central North Carolina including the fall foliage have started not producing yet. We have had so much darn heat that continued from this summer. We had hot temperatures From May 2019 to the beginning of October this year. This might be the reason the fall colors have not changed this year due to the heat and no rain for weeks in Central North Carolina.

I have been out a lot taking pictures of the fall this year and coming out with some cool photographs better than last years.

The water turtles in my neighborhood pond are still out which is very interesting this year compared to last year.

I have also photographed many different birds so far that have starting coming to this area of North Carolina. I will be posting more pictures this year on the blog and hopefully some more weekly themes will be on the blog for the seasons in 2020 which is next year.

Have a great weekend and a great week and I hope to post a lot more this week on my blog before the old man walkabout does on his blog.

Step into Nature 8

Welcome back to another adventure in this weeks Step Into Nature on my blog. Let's see what is going on for this post this week on Thursday. This is a Red Headed Woodpecker, i also photographed at Jordan Lake with the master mind Al D while on a sunrise shot with him. I got several shots of both Female and Male Red Headed woodpeckers on this dead tree along side of the shore of Jordan Lake . We often don't see these very often in central parts of North Carolina but at the Lakes of Central North Carolina, you can see them and photograph them as well. This is a Carolina Anole, I photographed at the Botanical Gardens with the marvelous walkabout trying to find lots of subjects to photograph there. We photographed many Carolina Anoles, hummingbirds and many other subjects at the Botanical Gardens. Carolina Anolies are very cool to photograph when you find them espicaily at Nc Botanical Gardens in Chapel Hill. This is a baby Cropes Grey Tree Frog which I also photographed at NC B

A another new variant of covid

There is many new variants of covid but the one we are going to talk about on this post is MU variant of covid virus. The MU variant of covid was found in Columbia , South America in January 2021. This variant has caused some outbreaks in Europe, south A,Erica and the United States. The vaccines of covid and treatments are less effective in this variant. By far this one is not spreading as quickly as the original covid variant and Delta variant of covid . But for most the quickest one of the spread of the covid variant is still the Delta variant . The symptoms are the same as the variants of the covid and delta variant. So please take extra caution around these variants.
