Me And My Shadow – Great Blue Heron In Flight
Occasionally a single element in a photo will grab me in a way that I’m willing to overlook something else that would normally put me off a little.
A Gorgeous Dark Red Red-tailed Hawk Takeoff Series
Plus my first Rough-legged Hawks of the season and a report on the drastic changes at Bear River MBR.
Can You Guess What This Pied-billed Grebe Is Doing?
I’ll narrow your odds. He isn’t threatening an overhead rival or predator and he isn’t catching raindrops in his mouth either.
American Kestrel Balancing Act
This male stretched every limb he possibly could simultaneously which I thought resulted in an awkward but endearing pose.
Lessons I Learned Photographing Fighting Coots
These photos of brawling coots are among the very first I ever took with my brand new 500mm lens over eleven years ago, on June 18, 2007.
Red-tailed Hawks, Antique Glass And Family History
White-crowned Sparrow – Why Don’t Sparrows Get More Respect?
When it comes to appreciation from humans this species already has two strikes against it when it steps up to the plate. It’s a sparrow and it’s “common”.
Male Short-eared Owl In Flight With Prey In His Talons
Last night while looking for something else I found a pleasant surprise in my archives.
Why A Snoot-full Of Porcupine Quills Can Be A Serious Matter
“Don’t mess with Porky” was one of the early lessons I learned growing up on the Montana farm.
A Detailed Look At The Brand New Wildlife Education Center At Farmington Bay
The grand opening of the new Eccles Wildlife Education Center was yesterday morning and I was invited. I went early (very early) so I could take some photos before dignitaries and crowds arrived. This is one very special place.
Willet In Flight Showing Off Those Flashy Wing Patterns
Sometimes I should be much more careful when choosing a single image from a series to post on Feathered Photography.
Snowy Egret Vertical Takeoff From Ten Years Ago Today
As I occasionally do I went archive-diving last night and ran across a series of Snowy Egret photos I like that I’ve never posted on Feathered Photography. Some of my inexperience in those days may show in the images but I still enjoy them and of course the reminiscing.
Northern Harrier Hunting The Very Tops Of The Phrags
Western Grebes – Familial Bliss?
This apparent contentment of parent and offspring just struck me, though when I think about it I know it’s just a temporary illusion.
