Birding Trip Report After Being Housebound For Four Days
Turkey Vultures – Double Trouble
It’s only a novelty shot but somehow it seems perfect to help me get through my third day of new floor installation.
Three Recent And Very Different Red-tailed Hawks
Yesterday I Found The Immature Ferruginous Hawk Again
At least I think it’s the same bird I photographed four days ago. They were in the same area, they were both young birds and they were using the same hunting technique from the same fence line.
Yesterday’s Ferruginous Hawk – The Rest Of The Story
Yesterday I posted a single photo out of a series of photos I took of an immature Ferruginous Hawk two days ago in the west desert. In that post I said I’d be posting more of them very soon. These are those photos.
Ferruginous Hawk In Flight Against A Dark Mountain Background
Golden Eagle Perched, Taking Off And In Flight
Two, count’em TWO, magnificent Golden Eagles right in front of me to choose from but I didn’t even see the one that would have been the best opportunity by far until it was too late.
Immature Red-tailed Hawk Takeoff And Flight
Yesterday’s Prairie Falcon Precisely At Sunrise
Red-tailed Hawk Taking Off From A Juniper
Yesterday was a Red-tailed Hawk kind of day.
Northern Harrier With An Unusual Tail Feather
A plumage feature of Northern Harriers that most folks don’t notice and this particular bird shows an unusual variation on the theme.
Lamenting The Disappearing Great Salt Lake And Its Effect On Our Falcons
Turkey Vultures Squatting On Pipe Fences
I’m surprised that I like both of these photos and even more surprised that I like one of them as much as I do.
