Bald Eagle – A Dramatic Illustration Of The Effects Of Warm Light
A Shrike, A Coyote And A Couple Of Lucky Rabbit’s Feet
For me most of these shots from yesterday morning on Antelope Island have symbolic significance for the new year.

The Events And The Birds That Hooked Me On Bird Photography
A Bald Eagle From My Archives (and some thoughts on baiting)
Opportunities for the public to view Bald Eagles up close in northern Utah have evolved over the years.
