A Goose Of A Different Feather
I see hybrid wild ducks fairly often in the field but a hybrid Canada Goose was a new experience for me.

A Few Recent Birds
Occasionally I like to post a collection of recent bird images – a potpourri of sorts. These are photos that I might not post as stand-alones but collectively they’re a pretty good representation of some of the species now present in northern Utah. Each of these images was taken over the past eleven days.
A Trio Of Canada Geese In Flight
The calls of Canada Geese in flight are harbingers of the changing seasons and that’s certainly the case around here.
Some Recent Birds In My World
This selection of seven photos is a fairly representative cross-section of the bird species I’ve been seeing recently.
A Diving Redhead
A Raptor, Ducks In Flight And A Lifer From Montana’s Centennial Valley
Usually my blog focuses on a single species but today’s post is a bit of a potpourri.
Canvasback – A Goal Accomplished And An Addiction Reinforced
I worked harder at getting this shot than any other single image. Ever! It’s ugly but I love it.
Some Pet Peeves Regarding Birds And Terminology
I suspect all of us have personal pet peeves about things that are important to us. These are some of mine regarding birds and the words that some people apply to them.
Male Common Goldeneye Foraging In Rapids Of The Jordan River
This was one of my most challenging bird photography sessions ever but the behavior was fascinating to watch.
Male Redhead – The “Fool Duck”
Male Redheads are a handsome duck and I’ll photograph them every chance I get. Interesting poses are a bonus.
Cinnamon Teal With A Strange Feather Condition
Ok, curiosity finally dictated that I post some images of this duck. Does anyone know what’s going on here?
Redhead
In my view the only ducks that I see regularly that approach the elegance of male Pintails and Canvasbacks are the handsome Redheads.
Northern Shoveler Just Before Splash-down
I’ll admit to often ignoring Northern Shovelers while they’re on the water but I enjoy the challenge of photographing them in flight.
Grebe With A Big Fish And Two First-of-season Bird Species – Yay!
Why I Camp Where I Do At Red Rock Lakes National Wildlife Refuge
I spend a lot of time camping in my trailer and as a bird photographer my choice of a camping spot is an important one for me.
