Feathered Photography

A Peregrine Falcon And A Frozen Coot

Yesterday morning went from bust to boom at the very last minute possible and it was a Peregrine Falcon that saved my bacon.

It’ll take 16 more images to tell the rest of the story that I started yesterday but I thought it was worth telling.

This may end up on my short list of favorite kestrel photos.

Bird photography is largely a game of chance, particularly in action shots or when our subjects are in flight.

Before we can photograph owls we have to find them and this wise ol’ Barn Owl taught me a valuable lesson in that regard.

A behavior I’d never heard of, seen or photographed until last week. I believe this to be a story of adaptability and survival.

Slippery frost on a perch can result in some interesting poses.

I’ve photographed this feeding behavior before but those photos have never been this clear and detailed.

A six photo sequential series as three mergansers were about to land on the water.

Maybe this “impossible dream” can actually be achieved. If any of my readers have ever succeeded with this type of shot I’d enjoy hearing about it.
