Western Grebes, An Optical Illusion And An Unusual Behavior
A ‘twofer’ that includes an optical illusion and a behavior that was new to me in the same series of images. (10 photos)
Rough-legged Hawk Inspecting His Belly
Displaying Yellow-headed Blackbird And A Ghoulish Apparition
You never know what you’ll find, or see for the first time, when you go back and look at older images.
Least Chipmunk Being Cuter Than Usual
This is the first time I’ve ever found two separate optical illusions in the same photo.
Male Red-tailed Hawk In A Downward Takeoff
Western Grebes – An Optical Illusion And A Behavior New To Me
Apologies for posting the same species two days in a row but yesterday I got a grebe twofer – an optical illusion and a behavior I’d never seen before.

Yesterday morning I was able to catch a few Ring-necked Pheasants out in the open at Farmington Bay. This shot reminded me that things aren’t always as they appear.
Red-tailed Hawk – Another Optical Illusion
