Adult Bald Eagle Coming In For A Landing
If I remember correctly, and I believe I do, what this bird was really coming in for was a fight.

Red-tailed Hawks Doing Battle
A Few Minutes In The Lives Of 2 Sibling Red-tailed Hawk Fledglings
Fourteen minutes condensed into eight photos to be precise. These are behavioral images and none of them are great shots but I think most of us here on Feathered Photography appreciate interesting behaviors at least as much as we do “pretty bird photos”.
Hovering Male Northern Harrier – Gray On Gray
This is one situation where I’ll allow one of my personal photographic ‘rules’ to be broken.
Some Very Good News On The Red-tailed Hawk Nesting Front
Clipped Or Cut Off Body Parts – In Photography And Otherwise
Amputating body parts in photography is one thing but it’s something else altogether when you do it to yourself. And your guillotine is a very sharp knife instead of a camera.
One Pissed-off Cedar Waxwing (plus a couple of bonus creatures)
Golden Eagle Perched And In Flight
I don’t get many decent chances at Golden Eagles and there’s something in the last shot I’d like my viewers to see and appreciate.
Male Northern Harrier In Flight
Very Young Juvenile Red-tailed Hawk Learning To “Walk The Pipe”
This is one of two young siblings “walking the pipe” as it tries to develop its coordination. A year ago I posted photos of one of them doing this but all 9 of these images are new to my blog.
Nine Recent Birds, Nine Different Species
Favorite Raptor Perches
Raptors in particular are known for repeatedly using the same perch, sometimes over a period of years. And sometimes they’re used by more than one raptor species so it behooves the bird photographer to check them out regularly. If raptors like’m, I like’m – even when they’re less than photogenic.
Bald Eagle Snagging A Fish Out Of Water
To say I was excited to get this two shot series is an understatement. A later event took the shine off of one of the images for me but at the time I didn’t know what the future would bring.
