Some Recent Birds
Male Common Goldeneye In Flight

And this bird complicated my decision about buying a new camera. (11 photos)
A Male Common Goldeneye Gets A Surprise At Takeoff

Some Recent Birds
Male Common Goldeneye – A Hunting Hat Trick
In this series we’ll see why birds that eat crayfish usually shake them violently before swallowing them. It’s a behavior that pays off. (14 photos)
Common Goldeneye Taking Off Along The Ice Line
Mr. Fathead Meets Mr. Pinhead
Nothing serious today. Just a little fun, except for another observation about heat waves/temperature disparity affecting image quality and sharpness. That part is serious, at least for me. (3 photos)
Goldeneye Reflections Part I
No, not Reflections in a Golden Eye. Neither Marlon Brando nor Elizabeth Taylor will be making an appearance and there will be no murder. (6 photos)
Adult Male Common Goldeneye – AKA Mr. Fathead
Reflections are unpredictable and often a great deal of fun if, like this photographer, you’re easily entertained.
