A Morning In The Life Of A Bird Photographer
I just never know what I’ll find, or find out, during a morning of attempted bird photography. Yesterday provided ample evidence of that.

A Hummingbird First For Me
Yesterday morning I learned something about hummingbirds. Maybe I’ll start trying to get hummingbird takeoff shots again. It’s been a while.
Short-eared Owl Fledgling And Light Quality
Black-chinned Hummingbird – Sharpness Matters, Especially When Cropping
Mountain Bluebirds At And Near Their Nest Cavity
A more comprehensive look at the Mountain Blubird pair near their nest cavity in the mountains.
Male Mountain Bluebird And His Mate, sorta…
I don’t see a photo like this one every day and I look at an enormous number of bird photographs.
Burrowing Owl Showing Evidence Of The Origin Of Their Common Name
If you’re going to dig or maintain a burrow in spring you’re very likely to end up looking a little like a kid who’s been playing in the mud.
Mountain Bluebirds At A Natural Nest Cavity
I look for Mountain Bluebirds nesting in natural cavities every spring but rarely find them. Yesterday I finally did but the shooting was tough.
Song Sparrow Downward Takeoff
Red-tailed Hawk Flying Along A Cliff Edge
Sage Grouse Displaying On A Lek Versus Random Encounters Elsewhere
My First Willet Of The Year
What a reliable bird. I found “him” two days in a row, at the same time of early morning and on the same lonely and isolated perch.
My Mated Pair Of Backyard California Quail
These two roam my neighborhood but the have a special affinity for my vegetable garden.
Mating Red-tailed Hawks – The Rest Of The Story
Yesterday I documented the prenuptial flight of the male Red-tailed Hawk that I photographed two days ago in northern Utah. Today that story is continued with their mating.
Red-tailed Hawk Takeoff And Pre-nuptial Flight Yesterday Morning
Including one of the more unusual photos I’ve ever posted to Feathered Photography.
