A progress report on a photography challenge I’ve recently assigned myself. I figure if I make my goal public it’ll provide extra motivation to succeed. (3 photos)
Black-chinned aren’t as colorful as the Rufous Hummingbirds I also photographed on these wild flowers but they gave me more interesting poses and behaviors.
Going on a “snipe hunt” is a phrase suggesting a fool’s errand so it was appropriate that one of my first subjects yesterday morning at Bear River was a Wilson’s Snipe.
Recently I’ve spent four mornings photographing hummingbirds and sphinx moths as they fed on Rocky Mountain Bee Plant on Antelope Island. This morning I thought I’d present a rather diverse mix of Black-chinned and Rufous Hummingbird images from those sessions.
Yesterday morning I spent more time with the hummingbirds on Antelope Island. This female Rufous Hummingbird perched close and gave me some interesting poses.
