Least Weasel In Utah? Could It Be?
There are two weasel species found in Utah. The Least Weasel isn’t supposed to be one of them.
Double-crested Cormorant – Paying An Unfair Price For Being Such A Good “Fisherbird”
I should aim my lens at cormorants more often than I do. Both their physical appearance and their behaviors seem almost prehistoric and that piques my interest.
A Clark’s Grebe Behavior I Can Only Guess At
Clark’s Grebe Back-brooding Chicks
Yesterday morning was windy at Bear River MBR but it would take more than a little wind to curb the curiosity and enthusiasm of the many grebe chicks at the refuge. I saw Western Grebe, Clark’s Grebe and Pied-billed Grebe chicks but I had the most fun with Clark’s.
One Of My Images Published By National Geographic
I’m uncomfortable tootin’ my own horn but I promised readers that I’d provide more details about who published this image when the book came out.
Yellow-headed Blackbird Snagging Midges Out Of The Air
A Couple Of Outstanding Mothers On Mother’s Day
American White Pelican (and a tribute to a gifted nature photographer)
Clark’s Grebe – Drying Off That Foot
Forster’s Tern Performing A Hovering Ballet
One day I’d like to see slow-motion video of a hovering tern. In the meantime sequences like this will have to do.
Killdeer – Fire And Ice (plus a hawk mystery)
Fire and ice on the first day of spring – a setting that’s just a little bit different for this Killdeer.
Western Kingbirds And Old Memories
My strongest early memory of Western Kingbirds goes back to the late 70’s and early 80’s when I was teaching summer classes (Junior Science Academy) for the Utah Museum of Natural History.
Barn Owl Coming My Way
My Lens Is Back Already – Canon Professional Services (CPS) Rocks!
My 500mm lens was returned from the shop yesterday afternoon, even earlier than I dared hope.
