Rough-legged Hawk On Rabbit Prey
A wild hawk on wild prey in a natural setting so I like the primeval mood of the photo.
Pied-billed Grebe Mystery Behavior
I’ve spent hundreds of hours with Pied-billed Grebes over the years and this is one of the few times I’ve managed to document this fairly unusual behavior. Its purpose/function still eludes me.
Northern Harriers – Aerial Dogfight
Bathing American Coot
Photographing bathing birds is always fun but getting quality photos during all the pandemonium isn’t easy, especially when a black bird with a white bill is involved.
Adult Bald Eagle In Flight
Male Common Merganser In Flight
I find photos of ducks in flight difficult to come by and because of their speed mergansers are among the most challenging of all.
Adult Bald Eagle On The Prowl For Ducks
When you’re photographing ducks on the water it’s nice to be able to just raise your lens a few degrees and take photos of a marauding Bald Eagle.
Male Redheads And A Female Canvasback
A bit of a mixed bag today – two species I don’t get to photograph very often, although I do have more opportunities with Redheads than Canvasbacks.
Coot Fight Yesterday Afternoon
One of these combatants could give any human prize fighter a lesson on how to land back-to-back haymakers.
Adult Bald Eagle In Flight
In flight shots with homogenous sky backgrounds I need a little something extra to provide more interest. Typically it doesn’t take much.
A Spotlit Prairie Falcon At Sunrise
A lighting effect I almost never get on a raptor. Or any other bird for that matter.
Adult Bald Eagle In My Neighborhood Yesterday
American Kestrel Puffed Up And Snuggled Down On Rabbitbrush
Bald Eagle In Flight Against A Wasatch Mountain Background
Having mountains so close to many of my favorite birding locations is a double-edged sword.
