Spotted Sandpiper – After The Bath
This may look like a typical wing stretch but looks can be deceiving and this one is.
Random Events In The Life Of A Kingfisher
Five days ago I spent about 40 minutes with a male Belted Kingfisher who even cooperated occasionally. These are some of the events I photographed that morning.
Yellow Warbler Eating An Aphid
A Much Better Look At One Of The Red-tailed Hawk Chicks
An Owl, A Willet, A Coincidence And The End Of A Very Long Story
Kingfisher Takeoff (not a dive)
And a close to perfect landing spot.
It’s been a while since I had any luck with my favorite Belted Kingfisher but yesterday morning he came through for me once again.
Unidentified Flycatcher
Male Bullock’s Oriole
Three Red-tailed Hawk Chicks Posing Perfectly In The Nest
‘Posing perfectly’ and raptor chicks almost never go together but this time was an exception.
A Female Western Tanager Gets A Surprise Visitor
Male Lazuli Bunting
Lazuli Buntings, males in particular, are conspicuous and well known in many western states. And they’re among the most beautiful birds I photograph.
Violet-green Swallow – An Upside Down And Backward Takeoff
My First Hummingbird Photos Of The Season
Some Recent Birds And Things
A cross section of some of the subjects I’ll aim my lens at while I’m in the field. With varying degrees of success.
