Great Egret Banking In Flight
Plus a champion of raptors and a mentor to thousands of raptor-lovers could use our help.
Wilson’s Snipes At Farmington Bay WMA Yesterday Morning
Aggressive Great Blue Herons – “Upright And Spread Wing Display”
After twelve years of photographing birds and paying particular attention to their behaviors it isn’t every day that I witness a ritualized aggressive behavior that’s new to me. But it happened yesterday at Bear River MBR with a couple of Great Blue Herons, seemingly on steroids.
Snowy Egret Landings
A large group of hungry and cooperative Snowy Egrets saved my morning yesterday at Farmington Bay WMA.
Male Northern Harrier Diving On Prey
The incredibly athletic twisting dives of Northern Harriers on prey are always impressive to witness (and difficult to photograph well) but when it’s an adult male, a “Gray Ghost”, for me at least it’s extra special.
“Stuff” Going On In The Mountains Yesterday Morning
Rough-legged Hawks
In my view Rough-legged Hawks are spectacularly handsome raptors whether perched or in flight, even in poor light.
Wet Red-tailed Hawk Perched, Taking Off And In Flight
Forster’s Terns Fishing In Flight And Emerging With A Fish
It’s been two years since I’ve posted images of this species but yesterday morning at Farmington Bay WMA I had some luck with them (yes, the gate at Farmington is now open).
Wilson’s Warbler On Sumac Berries
This black-capped rascal was one of the most exasperating birds I ever aimed my lens at.
My Three Brushes With Death As A Toddler And Young Boy
Immature Red-tailed Hawk With A Rodent
The Northern Flicker That Could Have Been
Merlin in Deep Shade
Plus some of the challenges I’m facing right now that affect my blogging and may do so in the future.
