Fuligo septica, also known as yellow slime mold, scrambled eggs mold or dog vomit mold, is a species of plasmodial slime mold found almost exclusively in mulch. It is non toxic and will not harm you, your pets or your garden. Time lapse videos will show it "pulsing" or "breathing" throughout its short lifespan. Within days this will "melt" and turn into a brown hardened substance but a good rain will bring back the spores. If you do not like the look, you can easily rake it out.

Last week Florida had it's first lightning death of 2022 and guess what they were doing? That's right, lawn care. Please do not ever endanger your life for work or fun. Go inside if you see lighting. Go inside if you hear thunder. It's not worth the risk. If you hear it roar, head indoors

To whom it may concern
I have been notified by multiple people today of someone fraudulently using my business name as their own. I’d like to set things straight for all the concerned parties. I, Dustin Rethelford, have no idea who this “James Bailey”person is. I am the owner and sole employee of my business. I have reported it to Facebook and I am going to the police department tomorrow to file an identity theft and slander report against him.
I absolutely do not support his actions in any way, I myself have 2 daughters and can not imagine going through what that young girls family is probably going through over this creep. Thank you to everyone that has reached out to me about this because I probably would not have caught it otherwise.

Painted Buntings look like brightly colored rainbows. I don’t think Mother Nature could dream up a more vibrantly colored bird than Painted Buntings. The colors are so bright, so vivid and captivating that it’s hard not to be struck in awe at the sight of them. There’s only one problem, …

---- Look BEFORE You Lop ---
Are you pruning your shrubs or trimming your patio plants? Be on the lookout for these tiny, walnut-sized nests.

Mother hummingbirds spend about 4 hours each day for 5-7 days to make perfect nests for their babies. After finding a spot that is the right temperature, under cover to protect from rain, and safely tucked away from strong winds, mother hummingbirds will set out to find the best materials for her nest.
She likes to use soft material like moss and lichen, bits of cotton, soft plant pieces, dryer lint, and leaf hairs. Mother hummingbirds will camouflage the nest with small sticks, seeds, and plant pieces. She will hold it all together with spider webs which allow the nest to stretch and flex as the baby hummingbirds grow.
Mother hummingbird will usually lay 2 eggs which are about the size of a small jellybean. Incubation is 16-18 days. When her babies hatch, they will weigh about 0.62 grams or 1/3 the weight of a dime. In a little over 3 weeks, the babies will fledge. Mother hummingbirds may then begin preparation for a second brood.
