A Goldfinch One-winged Takeoff
Rough-legged Hawk Takeoff Series
A Winter Bittern And A New Observation Tower At Bear River MBR
A highly unusual winter bird and a new incarnation of a long-lost landmark made yesterday a good day at Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge.
Canvasback Eating A Fish
A behavior I’d never heard of, seen or photographed until last week. I believe this to be a story of adaptability and survival.
A Christmas Morning Tradition
Weather Loach – An Extreme Story Of Survival
Many birds and other vertebrates have innovative strategies for survival and the weather loach is certainly one of them.
A Couple Of Interesting Barn Owl Images
Each of these photos has something just a little bit different about it, at least in my collection of Barn Owl images.
Western Grebes – A Family Affair
For a variety of reasons this might have been my most rewarding session ever with a family of Western Grebes and I actually had five of them to play with.
A Hawk, A Meadowlark And A Kingfisher Engulfed In The Golds Of Fall
