Occasionally a single element in a photo will grab me in a way that I’m willing to overlook something else that would normally put me off a little.

A Gorgeous Dark Red Red-tailed Hawk Takeoff Series
Plus my first Rough-legged Hawks of the season and a report on the drastic changes at Bear River MBR.
Townsend’s Solitaire – A Super Picky Eater
In fact, the solitaire demonstrated his fussiness about food on two separate occasions and in two different ways.
Can You Guess What This Pied-billed Grebe Is Doing?
I’ll narrow your odds. He isn’t threatening an overhead rival or predator and he isn’t catching raindrops in his mouth either.
Brewer’s Blackbird Trying To Keep Her Feet Dry (+ a bonus raptor)
Finally, Another Belted Kingfisher
I’ve been looking for kingfishers in many areas for the last few months with no luck getting close enough but yesterday I finally found one that cooperated, if only for a for a few moments.
American Kestrel Balancing Act
This male stretched every limb he possibly could simultaneously which I thought resulted in an awkward but endearing pose.
Foot Color Variations In Ruby-crowned Kinglets

When I cut off the end of my finger recently with a butcher knife many readers said they took my example to heart and vowed to change their ways when handling sharp knives. Well, you might as well learn from another recent and colossal blunder of mine.
Juvenile And Adult Sage Thrashers
And some very good news about migrating Rough-legged Hawks, especially for local photographers and birders.

White-crowned Sparrow Playing Hide And Seek With A Harrier
Nothing major today – just one of those little mini-dramas in the daily life of birds. But it does play out in a pretty setting
Red-tailed Hawks, Antique Glass And Family History
The ‘Bumps In The Road’ Continue…
and so does the comedy of errors regarding my antibiotics. I deeply regret having to make a second post on this subject but it was either that or leave my readers in the dark about why I wasn’t posting today.
