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.

A Pronghorn Fawn And A Near-disaster With Barbed Wire
I’m growing weary of featuring wildlife encounters with barbed wire on my blog and I’m sure some of my readers are too (that’s one of the reasons I’ve put this post off for over a month). But dammit, I just can’t stick my head in the sand and pretend this kind of thing doesn’t happen (don’t worry, there are no gory photos in this post).
A Few Mammals From My Recent Camping Trip To Montana And Idaho
Birds are always my focus but I enjoy photographing critters of all types. Early this month I spent a week camping near the Continental Divide between Montana and Idaho and during that time I was able to photograph a variety of mammals, large and small.
Pronghorn Running 50+ MPH (while I’m driving 25 and taking the shot)
A Meadowlark Takeoff And Those Demonic Biting Gnats On Antelope Island
Bird photography is difficult enough without the added aggravation of hordes of biting insects.
In Defense Of Scavengers
A Shrike, A Coyote And A Couple Of Lucky Rabbit’s Feet
For me most of these shots from yesterday morning on Antelope Island have symbolic significance for the new year.
A Tale Of Two Mule Deer Bucks In Rut
Last month I photographed two Mule Deer bucks that showed decidedly different effects of the rut.
Mule Deer Buck In Rut
Some Random, Recent Critters I’ve Photographed
This is an eclectic group of images but maybe that’s part of the appeal for me. They give me a sense of the variety of my subjects even when my primary goal is birds.
Strange-looking Mule Deer Jumping A Fence
Montana Farm Potpourri
Whenever I visit the northwest Montana farm where I grew up I feel like I’m returning home. It’s been 50 years since I actually lived there but I don’t think that feeling will ever leave me.
Buck Pronghorn Challenging Me In The Fog
The females and youngsters trotted nervously away from the road but the buck reacted quite differently to me.
Running Coyote Pup – More Legs Than It Knows What To Do With
Canid pups are just plain cute but throw in a bushel of awkward long legs and I think the cuteness is amplified.
Coyote Buddies – Both Of Them Survivors
I love it when critters overcome a stacked deck and beat the odds against their survival.
