Red-tailed Hawk Takeoff Series
I’ve photographed a lot of Red-tailed Hawks recently and the streak continued yesterday morning near the north end of Utah’s Promontory Mountains.

Went Looking For Kingfishers, Found Butterbutts Instead
Normally I’m not fond of cutesy little names for birds but this one fits the species so very well it just keeps popping into my head when I see them.
A Landing Red-tailed Hawk Series
It’s hard enough to get a single sharp shot of a landing raptor but nine days ago I captured an entire series of them near Montana’s Centennial Valley.
The Agony And The Ecstasy Of Bird Photography
As viewers we almost never know what it really took for the photographer to get that shot we like so much.
Hatch Year Black-billed Magpies At Takeoff
Magpies along with many other birds have been relatively scarce on Antelope Island since the wildfire in July.
An Extremely Tolerant Red-tailed Hawk (+ a photo of mine in Audubon Magazine)
Some Red-tailed Hawks become quite tolerant of human activities but for me this one stood out.
Cornell’s “Handbook of Bird Biology” 3rd Edition Finally Published!
I’ve been waiting for the new edition of this book for a very long time. The second edition has been out of print for years and even used copies have been very difficult to come by.
Red-tailed Hawk And An Unusual View Of The Tetons
Finally – Another Approachable Prairie Falcon
It’s been over three years since I’ve been able to closely approach a Prairie Falcon in the Centennial Valley but yesterday it finally happened again.
A Black-necked Stilt And A Little Weirdness
These aren’t serious images, in fact I’d probably categorize them as novelty photos. But I still find them visually interesting and somehow they seem appropriate for Saturday morning.
Landing Red-tailed Hawk
Part of the reason I like the photo is because we don’t see many shots of landing raptors.
Ferruginous Hawks And Wilderness Vistas Await Me
Bathing Western Meadowlark – Curtain Call
Clumsy Young Prairie Falcon In Low Light
It’s rare for a Prairie Falcon to allow a close approach but this young bird was an exception.
Ferruginous Hawk In Flight With Nesting Material
The mystery continues as to what this nesting material actually is but I think I have a pretty good guess.
