A Potpourri Of Recent Images (8 bird species and 1 mammal)
Though none of these photos may be truly spectacular I like each of them for their behavior, charm or uniqueness.
A Landing American Kestrel
Photos of birds as they land are a challenge, especially when your subject is a quick little falcon.
Sub-adult Bald Eagle In The Promontory Mountains
Differing crops of similar photos can have a major impact on the “feel” of the images.
A Loggerhead Shrike And A Coyote In The Snow
This morning I feel a little like how this shrike must have felt just over a year ago. We finally have snow on the ground here in Salt Lake City!
A Rousing Short-eared Owl
Leucistic Red-tailed Hawk In Flight And At Takeoff
This might be the most spectacular and unique raptor I’ve ever photographed or even seen. In fact there’s no “might be” about it – without qualification, it is. And I even got some pretty decent photos of it in flight.
A Red-tailed Hawk And Remembering To Practice What I Preach…

Northern Harriers – Why It’s Wise To Be Wary While You’re Eating
The winter of 2008 was cold and brutal in northern Utah which put a lot of stress on birds. More than once I noticed ducks frozen into the ice at dawn.
Rio Grande Wild Turkeys On The Promontory Peninsula
Yesterday Wild Turkeys saved the day for me along Promontory Road. There sure wasn’t much else out and about to photograph.
