Ferruginous Hawk In Flight With Atypical Nesting Material

Not all raptor nesting material consists of twigs and sticks.

This Pronghorn decided to show me what speed really was.

Photographing fighting tree swallows in very low light is an exercise in frustration.

Technically this is an Idaho owl but I found it yesterday morning only about a mile from the Montana border.

This male Cassin’s Finch was a pleasant surprise.

I don’t think this adult Red-tailed Hawk was very happy with my presence.

I never know what might happen to my daily blog posting schedule once I reach the wilds of Montana on one of my many camping trips to my home state.

Birds and their feathers continue to surprise me with what they can do when they need to.

Sometimes I have to rely on subtle clues to figure out what’s really going on in my own images. And I was there!
