Red-tailed Hawks – Makin’ Babies
Recently I semi-promised not to post any more Red-tailed Hawks for a while but when sex is involved promises are often broken. Today’s post is no exception.

Another Red-tailed Hawk Takeoff Series (six images)
Five days ago in northern Utah I had my most productive day with Red-tailed Hawks in years.
Can’t We Go Any Faster, Dad?
This is one of the most unusual and amusing bird behaviors I’ve ever photographed. And it was completely unexpected.
Red-tailed Hawk Taking Off And Coming At Me (11 image series)
It isn’t often that I’m able to keep a raptor in frame and in focus for this many shots during and after takeoff.
Seduced By A Prairie Falcon In Flight
Adult Red-tailed Hawk In A Flight Posture I Love
It’s been a while since I’ve liked one of my Red-tailed Hawk photos as much as I do this one.
Short-eared Owl In Very Low Light
I may have never photographed a Short-eared Owl in light more dim than this so I’m surprised to have ended up liking these photos very much.
My First Decent Burrowing Owl Photos This Year
I seldom photograph Burrowing Owls on Antelope Island anymore so it was fun to find this cooperative bird yesterday morning.
Western Meadowlark On A Buffalo Chip
I kind of dared myself to post this image and now I’m calling my own bluff. And of course the perch is more correctly called a bison chip than a buffalo chip but somehow that just doesn’t have the same ring to it.
Great Horned Owl Framed By Old Wood
Black-billed Magpies At Their Nest
There’s no middle ground with magpies – most folks seem to either love them or loathe them.
Chukars Are Doing Their Spring Thing Again
For about half of the year most Chukars on Antelope Island are shy and inaccessible in more remote areas of the island but when spring rolls around they come out to play.
Western Grebes – Old And New
Two days ago I visited Bear River MBR on the first full day it was open after being closed because of flooding. It was an interesting preview of things to come.
Golden Eagle In Overhead Flight
Another Meadowlark Series (but for me this one’s special)
This may be the most humorous series I’ve ever photographed but then my mother always did say I had a warped sense of humor.
