A Hugely Coincidental Encounter With A Juvenile Short-eared Owl
Red-naped Sapsuckers At The Nest Cavity
This is one of those situations that tempts unscrupulous photographers into unethical behaviors.
One Of The Scroungiest Looking Red-tailed Hawks I’ve Photographed
Most birds I post on my blog are attractive and well coiffed. I’m posting this one for exactly the opposite reason.
