Sage Thrashers Grooming And Displaying
Sage Thrashers have been described as “rather plain and unremarkable” but I love’em.
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 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 Peregrine Falcon And A Salute To Bob Walters
This is a good time of year to be on the lookout for Peregrine Falcons on Antelope Island, especially along the causeway.
Coyote – The Shot That Might Have Been (and almost was…)
A Mostly Monotone Meadowlark
I almost deleted this image on my first culling pass because I thought it lacked pizzazz.
Hatch Year Black-billed Magpies At Takeoff
Magpies along with many other birds have been relatively scarce on Antelope Island since the wildfire in July.
Bathing Western Meadowlark – Curtain Call
Clumsy Young Prairie Falcon In Low Light
It’s rare for a Prairie Falcon to allow a close approach but this young bird was an exception.
A Red-tailed Hawk Image I’ve Changed My Mind About
Occasionally I have second (or even third or fourth) thoughts about an image. This is one of them.
Long-billed Curlew Performing Rhynchokinesis
Calliope Hummingbird In A Natural Setting
I have fewer opportunities with hummingbirds than many bird photographers because I won’t photograph them at setups (or flash them). I much prefer a natural setting, natural light and behaviors that haven’t been coerced.
