An Acrobatic Song Sparrow Yesterday Morning
Juvenile Green-tailed Towhee
Yesterday morning in the Wasatch Mountains I photographed my first juvenile of this species.
Lark Sparrow With Prey (Plus A ‘Red’)
A few of the birds on Antelope Island are still in the late stages of nesting, including this Lark Sparrow and a female Bullock’s Oriole I saw at a distance feeding a recent fledgling.
A Celebratory Lark Sparrow
Some folks might wonder why I would celebrate a Lark Sparrow but for me this classy looking (for a sparrow at least) songbird was a bit of a milestone.
A Practical Way For Bird Photographers To Help Birds
And you don’t have to be an accomplished photographer to participate. If you photograph birds on any level you’re likely to eventually get some photos that would be helpful.
Lazuli Bunting – A Swell Bird In “The Swell”
Lazuli Buntings are appropriately named after the blue gemstone lapis lazuli. I think it’s a perfect name for such a spectacularly plumaged bird.
Yellow Warblers And A Green-tailed Towhee
Gray Catbird And A Green-tailed Towhee
A trip into the Wasatch Mountains yesterday morning provided me some photos of species I don’t often get.
Lark Sparrow Singing And Rousing
Lark Sparrows returned to Antelope Island some time ago but until two days ago I haven’t been able to get any “clean” shots of them. I can partially blame the growth habits of sagebrush for that.
Vesper Sparrow On Tintic Quartzite
LBJ’s (little brown jobs) don’t get enough attention from bird photographers, including me on Feathered Photography, so this post is part of my effort to rectify the situation.
Antelope Island Lark Sparrows (plus a devastating house fire behind my home)
Yesterday on Antelope Island I got my first Lark Sparrow photos of the year but I paid the “no-see-um” price.
Adult And Juvenile White Crowned Sparrows
Plus some heartfelt nostalgia and a method for dealing with comment typos on Feathered Photography.
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.
Spotted Towhee In A Weird Takeoff Posture
Or perhaps it was a threat posture. Or a combination of both. Either way I thought it was a little bizarre.
