Mockingbird Flight Display Photographed In Its Entirety…
…without skipping a beat. This was the first time I’ve been able to accomplish that long-time goal.

Red-tailed Hawk Carrying Food To His Mate At The Nest
Vesper Sparrow On Tintic Quartzite
LBJ’s (little brown jobs) don’t get enough attention from bird photographers, including me on Feathered Photography, so this post is part of my effort to rectify the situation.
Ferruginous Hawk In Flight With A Mountain Background
Things We Need To Think About When Approaching A Bird For Photography
There are many of them of course and this is only one but it’s an important one. Every bird photographer worth his/her salt already knows this on some level but we all need to be reminded, including me. What you’re about to see is ample proof that I’m included on that sad list of those who forget.
Barn Swallows Gathering Mud For Their Nests
Yesterday it was Cliff Swallows. To continue the swallow theme, today it’s Barn Swallows playing in the mud.
A Strategy For Photographing Cliff Swallows In Flight
Most bird photographers who try to photograph swallows in flight give up in frustration and I tried for several years before doing exactly that. They’re just too darned fast and erratic in the air.
A Warbler And A Kinglet From Yesterday Morning
Short-eared Owl With Prey Immediately After Landing
Some Interesting Swainson’s Hawk Mating And Feeding Behaviors
Flower-eating Chukar
This Chukar was hungry and he had a strong penchant for flowers. In fact he really stuffed himself on them.
Short-eared Owl In Flight With Prey
Short-eared Owls have been unusually difficult for me to come by this year so yesterday morning I was happy to catch this presumed male in flight with prey (a vole).
Antelope Island Lark Sparrows (plus a devastating house fire behind my home)
Yesterday on Antelope Island I got my first Lark Sparrow photos of the year but I paid the “no-see-um” price.
A Favorite Burrowing Owl Image Of All Time
Out of uncounted thousands of Burrowing Owl photos I’ve taken over the years and many hundreds I haven’t deleted this image is one of my 3 favorites.
A Potpourri Of Recent Birds And Critters
It’s been a while since I published a potpourri post so I figured it was about time. Each of the following 8 images was taken over the last 8 days in places like Bear River MBR, Antelope Island, Farmington Bay WMA or other favorite haunts of mine in northern Utah.
