The very first Green Tree Frog of 2016

 I spotted my first Green Tree Frog of the 2016 spring season 2016 at the NC Botanical Gardens.  This was the first green tree frog of the season I have photographed.

This weather for April has been very crazy for nature lately. The pollinators and insects are slowly returning and the pollinators and insects and spiders are really confused about the cold weather.


This is very rare for North Carolina to have cold weather in April. But the pollen has died down a lot since it began.This is very good thing for some people with allergies including myself.


I have seen some wildlife activity a lot this past week at my neighborhood pond and other places.


Regularly I have been doing lots of photos this spring at neighborhood and recently at Duke Forest which I post about later this weekend.  I hope you all are enjoying this crazy spring like weather.

New COVID Strain and vaccines for COVID

 Hey Hey its Al with a new topic for this blog post which is about the New COVID strain that has finally been discovered in The United States. Everyone in the United States, has to double down NOW, due to a new threat of a new variant of COVID strain,  called B.1.1.7 which is deadly strain of the next COVID peaks,  that may spike the numbers of cases in the United States by March 2021.
