Golden Eagle Takeoff And Flight Series
If my bird photography success rate was as low as the accuracy rate of weather forecasters I think I’d sell my camera gear and hang it up…
My First Ferruginous Hawk In Over Four Months
Northern Harrier Performing A Classic Hunting Maneuver
You just never know what might happen when you have your lens trained on a hunting harrier (hint – few raptors can jink like a harrier can jink…).
The Most Adventuresome Of The Red-tailed Hawk Siblings
Male American Kestrel Working Over A Tail Feather
A Couple Of Hawks Separated By Species And Time
There’s no common theme here other than both birds being hawks so I guess this post is a mini-potpourri but I always think it’s interesting to compare raptor species.
A Merlin With Meadowlark Prey
This series, which includes both before and after photos, dramatically illustrates the effects of fog on our images.
A Northern Harrier In Flight, Bad Habits And Bird Photography
I’m a creature of habit and as a bird photographer that tendency sometimes doesn’t serve me well.
Fledgling Red-tailed Hawk Playing Around On The Rocks
Very young raptors do a lot of crazy stuff when they’re still trying to learn the ropes.
Swainson’s Hawk Throwing A Pellet
Northern Harrier In Very Warm Light
Light doesn’t get much warmer than this (but I don’t always like warm light on birds).
The Supracoracoideus – An Ingenious Adaptation For Flight In Birds
Red-tailed Hawk Showing Off Its “Britches”
Fledgling Red-tailed Hawk Practicing More Skills – Clumsily
Landing must be one of the more difficult skills very young raptors need to learn because they spend considerable time practicing it.
