Male And Female California Quail
I seldom photograph California Quail because I’m generally not fond of the urban settings I usually find them in. Yesterday was different.

Western Grebes “Foot Shipping”
One of the more unusual bird behaviors I’ve photographed is “foot shipping” in Western Grebes. In fact I’d say it borders on the bizarre.
Ruby-crowned Kinglet – A Sideways Takeoff
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…
Ruby-crowned Kinglets Galore
I’ve never before seen anywhere near so many Ruby-crowned Kinglets in the same area at the same time.
My First Ferruginous Hawk In Over Four Months
Forster’s Tern Feeding A Juvenile On A Morbid Perch
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…).
Yellow-rumped Warblers – What A Difference The Setting Can Make!
I think I was becoming lulled into accepting and even presuming the same old boring settings for Yellow-rumped Warblers.
Ruby-crowned Kinglets – Dynamos Of The Bird World
Remembering Old Curlicue
Yellow-rumped Warbler – Vertical Takeoff After A “Bug”
It’s the third photo in this series that I like so much – mostly because anything like it has been so damned hard to get with these little speedsters.
Coyote Showing A Mouthful Of Teeth
As impressive as a coyote’s teeth are they’re not as massive and sharp as those of their recent ancestors.
Yellow-rumped Warblers In The Old Reliable Tree
Male Spotted Towhee
Because of their striking colors and skulking habits this is one of about a half-dozen of my most sought-after species.
