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 Lepidopteran Change Of Pace
I decided to feature birds of a different feather this morning – Hummingbird Moths in flight.
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…)
Loggerhead Shrike, With An Alternate Perspective On The Setting
Super-telephoto lenses can do a great job on the bird but they often leave the viewer clueless about habitat.
A Mostly Monotone Meadowlark
I almost deleted this image on my first culling pass because I thought it lacked pizzazz.
In Celebration Of Common Species – White-crowned Sparrow
I have a strong distaste for most forms of elitism but when it comes to birds I have to be careful not to let a bit of snobbishness creep in.
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.
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.
Birds “Wearing To Dark” – Chukars and Loggerhead Shrikes
Juvenile Red-tailed Hawk Hunting Near Frary Peak
Snowy Egrets In Flight (and a Long-eared Owl at Bear River)
I don’t post Snowy Egrets very often. Maybe that’s because they’re such a difficult subject to expose properly.
