A Long-eared Owl And Two Barn Owls At Farmington Yesterday (+ 2 video clips)
Christmas morning at Farmington was an “owly” experience for me – three birds, two species and a lifer.
My Christmas Morning Bird Tradition (and an update on Shannon)
Barn Owl At Farmington Yesterday (including video)
I’ve been wondering when I’d photograph my first Barn Owl of the winter. Yesterday was it.
Cinnamon Teal With A Strange Feather Condition
Ok, curiosity finally dictated that I post some images of this duck. Does anyone know what’s going on here?
A Western Meadowlark Performing In The Snow
As a Montana farm boy I have a special affinity for meadowlarks in the snow – not because we had them there during winter but because we didn’t.
The Events And The Birds That Hooked Me On Bird Photography
A Bald Eagle From My Archives (and some thoughts on baiting)
Opportunities for the public to view Bald Eagles up close in northern Utah have evolved over the years.
Redhead
In my view the only ducks that I see regularly that approach the elegance of male Pintails and Canvasbacks are the handsome Redheads.
A Pheasant, A Bald Eagle And Nictitating Membranes
You can’t tell me that birds don’t become “stickier” (more reluctant to fly and easier to approach) when it’s very cold.
Burrowing Owl – Deja vu All Over Again
With apologies to Yogi Berra for the liberties I took with my title I decided to post an image I’ve posted before, long ago. Here’s why.
A Variety Of Birds In The Snow
After being “grounded” by the recent huge snowstorm for a couple of days I was finally able to go out shooting yesterday morning.
A Female Kestrel Trying To Survive Winter’s Cold
Weather like we’re having now is difficult for our avian winter residents and that includes American Kestrels.
A Grebe And A Coot Battle Repeatedly Over A Fish
These two birds fought over the fish for over three minutes.

A Grebe And A Coot – What’s Going On Here?
Sometimes in the heat of the moment I get a shot that’s just a little bit different. Maybe even a whole lot different…
