Common Mergansers – Competition Among The Disadvantaged
I told this story seven years ago but this time I’m including more details and using mostly different photos.
Adult Bald Eagle About To Pounce On A Fish
Photographing An American Kestrel (and a friend) In A Near-blizzard
Bald Eagles Learning To Share
This adult Bald Eagle showed unusual tolerance toward a brazen and seemingly clueless immature companion.
Male And Female Hooded Mergansers With Fish…
Northern Harrier Landing Vertically On Prey In The Wind
Food For Thought, And For Raptors
An attempt to quantify the beneficial effects of raptors in rodent control. Gimme some numbers please!
Peregrine Falcon In Hoarfrost
A Couple Of Chickadees Doing What Chickadees Do
In this case it’s hanging upside down from Douglas Fir cones like wannabe Red-breasted Nuthatches.
The Pied-billed Grebe And The Crayfish
Have you ever wondered how a grebe swallows a crayfish with all those annoying legs and pincers sticking out? The answer is… it doesn’t. It amputates them first.
Prairie Falcon With A Few Surprises In Store For Me
Bird photographers never know what we’ll see in our photos that we didn’t notice in the field. My shots of this Prairie Falcon taken two days ago surprised me in more ways than one.
A Bloody Barn Owl In Flight
I’ve photographed hundreds of Barn Owls over the years but this was something I’d never seen before and haven’t seen since.
Male Hooded Merganser, This Time In Water (mostly)
Drake Hoodies may be pretty little ducks but their flashy and contrasty colors make them one of the most difficult exposures I’ve ever attempted.
Adult Bald Eagle Snagging A Fish Out Of The Water
Plus my worst bad habit as a photographer (I have other bad habits but most of them don’t involve photography).
