These stringy green filaments are actually cyanobacteria—and when they grow dense enough, they can release toxins harmful to both humans and pets. For now, it’s best to skip the swim and keep your furry friends on dry land.

While they might seem solid at first, a closer examination shows that each feathers lined with hairlike barbs. And each of those barbs is lined with hooked barbules, that link together like a zipper to form a smooth surface. Since they’re usually plucked before they reach the table, many of us never get a chance to see how beautiful and fascinating these tasty turkeys really are. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1763068276228-TNO2NBD14KEBP6TC2851/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Star Trails Timelapse - Alexandria, VA While auroras remained frustratingly elusive last night, I was able to capture a timelapse of these stars, and the occasional airplane, arcing across the evening sky. #NightSky #StarTimelapse #Astrophotography #NightPhotography #StarTrails #Stargazing #aurora https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1761937538005-K2EWWMP6HS3YAQ47OLZB/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Bats from Around the World: Halloween Edition From the sleepy suburbs of Northern VA, to the cavernous limestone caves of Barbados, to the stunning skies of Freetown, Sierra Leone, let these bats from around the world, wish all of you a Happy Halloween. #Bats #Halloween #NatureAtNight #HappyHalloween2025 #batweek https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1759116409268-AIZGGVVJMHUE3S06SDF6/image-asset.png Wildlife Vlog - First Rhino Encounter with NEWF Happy #WorldRhinoDay, this was my first Rhino encounter in the wild.

You’re not alone. Here’s some fruit flies and millipedes feasting on a ripe mango right off the trail at Welchman Hall Gully, Barbados. Not to be mistaken for centipedes, similar looking many legged arthropods with a painful bite, these millipedes are mostly harmless, though they may release an irritating liquid when threatened, so it’s best to let them enjoy their lunch in peace.

Here’s a timelapse from my walk through Welchman Hall Gully, one of the many lush ravines that criss-cross the Caribbean nation. Fascinatingly, this gully was actually once a cave, until its roof collapsed, letting in the verdant vegetation you see before you. Because of the steep terrain, gullies like this escaped urban and agricultural development, making them a great place to find fascinating animal and plant life, which I’ll make sure to share with you, in future videos. #barbados, #caribbean, #visitbarbados, #travel, #islandlife, #gopro, #BarbadosNature #timelapse, #natgeoexplorer https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1755285595870-QFGCJKM4GOCD0W90H3K6/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Lake Accotink Algae Bloom For this #MacroMonday, we’re zooming in on an algae bloom that’s taking over parts of the park’s waters.

They’re actually one of the world’s largest single cells, known as Bubble algae, or sea pearls. Unlike most cells that require a microscope to see, this fascinating algae is visible to the naked eye. Which is how I spotted it clinging to rocks at the water’s edge along the sunlit shores of Barbados. Just one of the many fascinating life forms hiding in plain sight, if you pause, take a closer look, and speed up the camera a bit.

Article: https://www.rewild.org/press/barbados... All that being said, this is NOT the Barbados Threadsnake, the world’s smallest serpent, but on first glance you might mistake it for one. What you’re seeing here is the Brahminy Blindsnake, a much more common, and in fact invasive species to Barbados. Living up to its name, the blindsnake doesn’t see like you or I do. Its simple, scale covered eyes can only detect changes between dark and light. But that’s all it needs for a life in the leaf litter and soil. That might explain how it got all the way from its native Southeast Asian habitat, to the Caribbean nation of Barbados, in shipments of live plants, hence its nickname, the “flowerpot snake.” Thanks so much, Conner, for your guidance and expertise during my 2022 Fulbright National Geographic Fellowship, we didn’t find the Barbados Threadsnake that year (we found plenty of blindsnakes), but I’m really glad you stuck with it and made the discovery in 2025! #WildlifeFriday, #NatureTok, #DidYouKnow, #InvasiveSpecies, #Biodiversity, #BarbadosThreadsnake #natgeoexplorer https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1753382798879-AVTLYOL2USSP6X03NNP6/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Canada Thistle Timelapse Have you ever seen a purple paintbrush? That’s exactly what these delicate blooms resemble. They’re the slender florets of a Canada thistle — a tough, spiny wildflower found across fields and roadsides. While its prickly stems and leaves might keep curious hands away, its bright violet petals are irresistible to pollinators. #MacroNature #PlantPollinators #WildflowerWatch #timelapse #naturetimelapse https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1753382568149-5J25DPSA7KC4GYEBJ41W/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Cane Toad Tadpoles - Barbados What are these tadpoles doing, in the middle of the sidewalk? This is a school of baby cane toads. This invasive amphibian isn’t too picky on where it lays its thousands of eggs, even a temporary puddle like this will do. In as little as 2 weeks, these tadpoles will leave their watery nursery, sprouting legs, shedding their tails, and transforming into the grouchy, slouchy, toads.

You might catch a glimpse at Barbados’ Animal Flower Cave. Waves from the open ocean have carried a fascinating ecosystem of marine life into this coastal limestone cave, with these featherworms being the star attraction.

It’s one of Barbados’ tiny Hawksbill hatchlings, beginning a perilous journey from nest to sea. Imagine storming the beaches of Normandy—in reverse. These fragile sea turtle hatchlings have to clamber over steep embankments and cross wide, exposed stretches of sand, all while dodging predators. That’s why sea turtles lay so many eggs—and why hatchlings emerge under the cover of night. In darkness and numbers, hopefully a few will slip past danger and make it to the open ocean. Thank you Dr. Carla Daniels and Dr. Julia Horrocks, from the Barbados Sea Turtle Project, for allowing me to film this amazing natural event!

It’s a pollen packed chilean sea fig.Thriving in nutrient-poor sandy soil, the Chilean sea fig unfurls with each sunrise to welcome pollinators, then closes again at sunset.

I spotted this crustacean on the beaches of Barbados, seemingly feasting on a sea cradle—a marine invertebrate related to snails. But take a closer look: is it actually munching on the animal itself, or just grazing on the green algae coating its shell? If you’ve got the answer, drop it in the comments—I’d love to hear your take.

During my Fulbright - National Geographic Fellowship in Barbados, I encountered this pair of Scaley-Naped Pigeons, nesting in the ruins of a former mansion, in Farley Hill National Park, Barbados. These striking, crimson eyed birds can actually be found through much of the Caribbean, feeding on fruits and dispersing undigested seeds far and wide through their ‘poop shoots’. Helping forests grow. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1750352327986-FE9T37T9VQJBJB0JZ1AF/image-asset.jpg Wildlife Vlog - Insta360 X4 Kingstowne Walk This Timelapse Thursday, I take the #insta360 X4 on a quick walk through snow covered Kingstowne, VA. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736906056917-8RRWJKE9QBPG870BKC94/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Happy New Year - Poinsettia Timelapse https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736905909378-M100I2QC4HVAY7QPKLPL/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Poinsettia Timelapse https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736905781814-2DNQAF953B5EF0TXSF6A/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Raw Turkey Bacteria https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736905563836-CTLUW7ELLCP8DZMGE8K1/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Halloween in Cole's Cave, Barbados https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736905391116-C60UD6DXFPEX6K8FDA18/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736905305244-45C2F8SAE6SXS70V7CMR/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - St Patricks Day Microalgae https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736905228988-228R3H4X4GS7DN8LA82L/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Classroom in the Wild (2023) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736905136645-9A5PZ75ZNXHKF18AYXXZ/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Happy Valentine's Day 2024 (Grasshopper Edition) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736905040470-ANFKENT08ZJ7SITOUGWJ/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Happy 2024 - Brood X Cicada Edition https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736904953029-NQ8D63954UBTOL49AU6M/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Rotten Tomato Under The Microscope - Timelapse Thursday https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736904858938-MTW83SVC1HXJ77EYXP3M/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Dandelion Under The Microscope https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736904714330-XUDOLSE7JQ1DW8XBYE1H/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Timelapse Thursday Jackie in Pink Dec 7th https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736904389700-UKK4VMZNT0GNOAADVYXD/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Huntley Meadows Turkeys - A Wild Thanksgiving https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736904304591-PRX83CNUU59YMPOYKJ93/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Pumpkin Fungus Under The Microscope https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736904201990-FJ2S0650EWUX5SAE4F3O/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Slime Mold Under The Microscope https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736904123627-GQ8YPV302EKNS67DTMVV/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Macro Monday - Flower Pot Rotifers Under The Microscope https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736904005304-78IYQKSOYWTLBIAJ0Q1K/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Timelapse Thursday - Maple Flowers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736903806360-5SOPLY4MQU3LMKH4ZIOK/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Macro Monday - New Orleans Water Under the Microscope https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736903707924-CDRWSWGLKWCWSA9U2QIW/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Bubbling fizzing watermelon under microscope https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1736903538254-FBF8EMP13M4US8PDN6BP/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - Baby House Sparrow Found this baby House Sparrow, what do I do with it? Looks like it fell out of its nest this morning, or maybe during yesterday’s storm. I’ve unfortunately found three dead nestlings in the same spot recently, so I decided to put down a trash bag to try and cushion the fall of any future jumpers. Welp I got my wish, and now I’m not sure what to do with this little thing! The parents are still nearby and making a huge fuss, so I could maybe just put it back in the nest (but then what if it falls again). Or maybe I should call a wildlife rehabilitation center? What do people think. Advice appreciated . https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1688690009085-RZ7Y9JJCZ4QWH7TZB2QO/image-asset.jpeg Wildlife Vlog - 4th of July Wildlife Happy 4th of July!

After filming it flew off, so hopefully it’s in decent shape. Honestly, it’s not the best idea to intervene in the course of nature. But it just seemed like the dragonfly was so big that this particular spider might have had trouble wrapping it up and eating it, which would have made the dragonfly’s slow death in that web a waste!

I saw several as I was digging my hands through the leaf litter , but this was the only one with an arm full of babies! I also did some digging on the internet, and found out that you might be able to find these multi legged monsters on nearby Carribean Islands, and in South America. Apparently, they can can grow to over 7 inches (18 cm) long. Numerous Barbadians have also told me that their bite can be… very unpleasant!

For this reason, it is often used as a 'biological control agent' during the early spring, when mosquito larvae begin infesting puddles and ponds. The bacteria shown here are from store-bought tablets. When these tablets make contact with water, the bacteria activate and begin to produce toxins. https://www.boydrb.com/insects daily 0.75 2018-05-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a46917e8c56a83d2fcb45c3/1526655813507-BZSODNN9AQ19PETPZAZN/image-asset.jpeg Insects -
