Update On ‘Eagle Power’ And The Decorah Eaglets
Two days ago I posted a mini-review of the new NOVA documentary on PBS entitled “Eagle Power”. A reader has provided additional and relevant information on the black fly incident that was very nearly lethal to the Decorah eaglets that played a pivotal role in the documentary.
‘Eagle Power’
Recently Fledged Red-tailed Hawk Learning His Limits
‘Pale Male’ Red-tailed Hawk Taking Off
An Unusually Pale Red-tailed Hawk Perched And In Flight
Probably the lightest-colored Red-tailed Hawk I’ve ever photographed, other than a leucistic red-tail four years ago.
A Hummingbird First For Me
Yesterday morning I learned something about hummingbirds. Maybe I’ll start trying to get hummingbird takeoff shots again. It’s been a while.
Red-tailed Hawk Flying Along A Cliff Edge
Mating Red-tailed Hawks – The Rest Of The Story
Yesterday I documented the prenuptial flight of the male Red-tailed Hawk that I photographed two days ago in northern Utah. Today that story is continued with their mating.
Red-tailed Hawk Takeoff And Pre-nuptial Flight Yesterday Morning
Including one of the more unusual photos I’ve ever posted to Feathered Photography.
Turkey Vultures – One Landing, One Reacting
I’m gonna call these two vultures from yesterday morning Frick and Frack. They were hanging around together like they were joined at the… furcula.
A Threatening Bald Eagle Protecting His Prize
Yesterday Was A Turkey Vulture Kind Of Day
And I enjoyed the hell out of it. Turkey Vultures have been gone for far too long and I’ve missed having them around.
Rufous Red-tailed Hawk In Flight In Low Light
Sometimes it’s fun to attempt flight shots in these conditions just to test the limits of your gear and your skills.
Sidelit And Unusually Tame Northern Harrier
Without question this is the “tamest” Northern Harrier I’ve ever photographed and I’ve had thousands of them in my viewfinder over the years.
