Water Management And Phragmites Control Issues At Bear River MBR
Yesterday I had a meeting with the new manager of Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge regarding questions and concerns I had about recent management decisions affecting the refuge. Here’s what I found out.
Warbling Vireo In The Willows
A Flight Shot, A Takeoff And A Squabble From Yesterday Morning
Cedar Waxwing In Flight – A Work In Progress
Live and learn is what they say but on this occasion a brain fart led to my downfall. I should have known better.
Chipmunk – The Big Stretch
Red Fox “Smiling”, Hunting And Pouncing On Prey
Maybe, just maybe, foxes can’t really smile but they sure as hell can jump. Yesterday in the mountains this one proved it.
Sage Thrasher And Rose Hips – What Is A “Perfect” Shot?
A Possible Yellow Warbler Strategy For Feeding On Aphids

Black-headed Grosbeak In Flight
Sometimes a dreadfully inadequate photo can be a treasure as inspiration. For me this image fits that description but prepare yourself, it’s a mess.
Willow Flycatcher? – Another Compositional Conundrum
American Goldfinch on Musk Thistle
And an interesting goldfinch strategy for combating brood parasitism of the Brown-headed Cowbird.
