Red-tailed Hawk With A “Slice” To Be Proud Of
Short-eared Owl Takeoff
My first of year Short-eared Owl flight shot is always somewhat of a milestone for me.
Yellow-bellied Marmot – A Real Ham For The Camera
Usually when I have a marmot in my viewfinder it just turns into a staring match without many interesting poses from the rodent. But this guy was a show off.
Red-tailed Hawk Pair At The Nest
Yellow-headed Blackbird (and getting good detail in deep blacks)
This image grabs me for reasons that only other bird photographers might appreciate.
A Stunning Dark Morph Swainson’s Hawk
I believe this bird to be the darkest dark morph Swainson’s Hawk I’ve ever encountered.
A Strange Common Nighthawk Behavior
Bullock’s Orioles In My Yard
Burrowing Owl – A Romp Through The Flowers
This owl played hopscotch through a sea of flowers in a howling wind on Antelope Island yesterday morning.
American Avocets At Bear River MBR Yesterday
By this time of year many American Avocets have already paired up and some of them are beginning early nesting activities.
Compositional Games With Two Turkey Vultures On A Rustic Corral
When viewers see in image in its “final” form they typically have no inkling of the various compositional versions of that image that may have been considered and rejected during processing.
Red-tailed Hawk In Flight (2 versions of the same image)
I believe this is the male of a nesting pair of Red-tailed Hawks I photographed yesterday in northern Utah.
My First Of Year Swainson’s Hawk And A Meadowlark Singing In The Cold
Two Views Of The Beautiful Backside Of A Male American Kestrel In Flight
It’s rare for me to post photos of birds where neither their eye or their face can be seen. But sometimes it’s the plumage that steals the show and for me male kestrels rule the raptor roost when it comes to spectacular colors and patterns.
