Spotted Towhee(s) Transitioning Into Adult Plumage
These juveniles look a little scruffy this time of year but I refuse to make a big deal out them not looking their best, especially after the photo I posted of myself two days ago.

The Serviceberry-eating Strategy Of A Lazuli Bunting
It’s often little things like the subtle survival skills of birds that interest me most.
The Song Sparrow Versus The Serviceberry
The Barn Swallow Version Of Deep Throat
An adult in flight feeding one of its fledglings. And let’s just say it’s being done enthusiastically by both participants.
My First Ever Say’s Phoebe Takeoff And Flight Shots
Yesterday morning we found a family of at least four Say’s Phoebes in the Wasatch Mountains. The adults were feeding their hungry fledglings.
A Few Minutes In The Lives Of 2 Sibling Red-tailed Hawk Fledglings
Fourteen minutes condensed into eight photos to be precise. These are behavioral images and none of them are great shots but I think most of us here on Feathered Photography appreciate interesting behaviors at least as much as we do “pretty bird photos”.
Western Grebe Trying To Kill And Swallow A Channel Catfish
Not a good idea! Swallowing a channel catfish whole is almost like swallowing a pincushion with the sharp ends of the pins sticking out.
Lark Sparrow With Prey (Plus A ‘Red’)
A few of the birds on Antelope Island are still in the late stages of nesting, including this Lark Sparrow and a female Bullock’s Oriole I saw at a distance feeding a recent fledgling.
The Novel ‘Revenge’ Of The American Goldfinch
Folks who dislike Brown Cowbirds for their habit of nest parasitism will likely appreciate this unique “revenge” of the American Goldfinch. We’ll get into that soon but first some goldfinch photos I took yesterday morning.
Gray Catbird And Black Twinberry Honeysuckle
Yellow Warblers – Adults And Fledglings From Yesterday Morning
Williamson’s Sapsucker Pair – She Almost Took His Head Off
Red-naped Sapsucker At Nest Cavity With Food For Hungry Chicks
How Ravens Dispose Of The Wastes Of Their Chicks…
Bald Eagle Snagging A Fish Out Of Water
To say I was excited to get this two shot series is an understatement. A later event took the shine off of one of the images for me but at the time I didn’t know what the future would bring.
