Winter Wildlife Part 2

Hey, Hey its Al Bugg from winter Wildlife studios. Today is winter wildlife part 2. Yeah!

I got out a few days back at the end of 2019 and got different photographs of different spices of wildlife that are residents in my neighborhood pond.

The top photo is a Male hooded Merganser. They are uncommon around here but in the winter, they do fly in flocks, they like to be on open waters such as wooded ponds which I have here in this neighborhood, swamps, tidal creeks.

The second wildlife, I photographed was a Turkey Volture which are very common around here in the piedmont region of North Carolina. I have been trying many times to get pictures of them comedown and capturing prey, which I still have not one but maybe this year will be the year it finally happens and I might get some pictures of it, If I am around the area when this occurs.

These are Mallards which are also common around here in the piedmont region of North Carolina. I did photograph some last year when It was matting season and I still have proof of it that it occurred in my neighborhood pond.

This was taken on the fist day of January of 2020. The great blue heron still is here wandering around my neighborhood pond and catching many fish. The Great Blue Heron that day caught 2 fish and have proof of it for the beginning of 2020.

Step into Nature # 10

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...

Just a little snow

Hey hey it Al back with a snow pictures from earlier today which I used My iPhone XR for these photographs of the snow , since I did not use my camera for these shots. We were supposed to get 1-3 inches of snow accumulation in this area but we only ended up with a dusting of snow. Some schools in the area of central North Carolina either did remote learning, delayed openings or closed for the day which one school system , did which was Chapel Hill Carrboro City schools. Even though, this was the only snow storm that Some snow stuck to the ground some did not stick to the ground due to the rain before that. In this shot, I did with the snow I used the snow as foreground element and used the remaining of the background to be blurred out to make an interesting photograph that came out really cool for this shot. I hope we might get another snow storm in February this year that might produce more snow and I can take even more pictures of it if is possible to happen this year in North C...
