Feathered Photography

Rough-legged Hawk Overlooking The Great Salt Lake

For me this image has the stamp of Antelope Island through and through, though others may not recognize it.

By the time early summer rolls around the plumage of many Bald Eagles has taken a beating.

What you see isn’t always what you get in nature photography. The following three images, taken sequentially in a burst, illustrate my point.

American Kestrels are primarily perch-hunters and they’re quite flexible in their choice of perches.

Thanks to cold temperatures and significant snow, some of the Northern Harriers at Farmington Bay are once again hunting closer to the road.

Over the years I’ve noticed something perplexing about the apparent relative numbers of immature and adult White-crowned Sparrows.

This bird was kiting in the updrafts as the winds rose when they hit the elevated causeway to Antelope Island.

I believe Swainson’s Hawks are the most vocal buteos I’ve photographed.

Yesterday was a good day for some of the scavengers on Antelope Island.

I haven’t seen a Golden Eagle on Antelope Island for many months but yesterday there were two of them and they seemed like good buddies.
