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.
A Singing, Posing Meadowlark
“My” Female Kingfisher Is Back!
Rock Squirrel And Lichens

Ferruginous Hawks, High Country News And Memories
A recent article in High Country News brought back many fond memories of photographing Ferruginous Hawks in Montana.

Western Meadowlark – They Just Can’t Help But Sing
In springtime meadowlarks are at the mercy of their hormones. No matter what they’re doing they often burst into song right in the middle of it.
