Why Birds Are The Colors They Are
As a bird photographer the beautiful colors of birds are almost as important to me as they are to the birds themselves.
Rough-legged Hawk In Flight With Prey
Rough-legged Hawk Takeoff Series
Northern Harrier Throwing Up A ….. Pellet?
This series may be a little too clinical for some but if you enjoy learning about bird biology, raptors in particular, you’ll likely find it of interest.
Juvenile Red-tailed Hawk Learnin’ The Ropes
Watching a clumsy young hawk attempt to learn new skills always makes me feel sympathetic for its plight but I’ll admit to being more amused than anything.
My Most Thrilling Prairie Falcon Encounter (and continuing story) Ever
It was an incredible experience for me to actually learn the life history of a Prairie Falcon I’d photographed in the wilds of southwest Montana.,
Peregrine Falcon Coming At Me
This part of my encounter with the falcon gave me a feeling for how a doomed duck must feel an instant before it meets its violent demise.
Avian Potpourri – Three Species, Five Images
A duck, a hawk and a heron.
Typical of potpourri there’s not much of a unifying theme here except each of my subjects has feathers in common and all five images illustrate something of interest (for me at least).
A Peregrine Falcon And A Frozen Coot
Yesterday morning went from bust to boom at the very last minute possible and it was a Peregrine Falcon that saved my bacon.
American Kestrel With Vole Prey – The Rest Of The Story
It’ll take 16 more images to tell the rest of the story that I started yesterday but I thought it was worth telling.
Male American Kestrel – An Aborted Takeoff With Prey
A Clumsy Male American Kestrel
A Christmas Morning Tradition
Merlin In Warm Light (plus some falconry and family history)
Maybe I have falconry blood in my veins and perhaps that’s part of my interest in raptors…
