That’s a really good photo MG2! Although that is an insect known as a Hoverfly, not a Yellowjacket.

Lepoard Frog visiting pond . MG2
That’s a toad. It looks like an American Toad to me. They’re very common here in the warmer months.
No it’s a Leopard Frog hiding in rocks in my pond . I have lots of toads and Tree Frogs .
I promise you that’s a toad. I’m really not trying to be rude, just trying to help identify these little critters.

Spotted a couple Eastern Red-Backed Salamanders and had my Lil Native pose for a quick photo op.
Great shots , never seen a red one . We do have the large black with speckles. They have a neat defense system . MG2

This morning, there was a squirrel being swooped by a crow in my yard, but I couldn't get a decent shot of it.

That’s a good one ! I watch ants do similar stuff I hope to get pictures of their labors this Summer . On a side mote have you heard about an invasive lizard invading Georgia, eats everything and can grow to four feet long ?
