A Flight Shot, A Takeoff And A Squabble From Yesterday Morning
Belted Kingfisher In A Takeoff/Flight Posture I Like Very Much
Yesterday I had a good morning in the mountains. I documented interesting behaviors from several species and I was even able to get a few photos I like.
American White Pelican Takeoff
American White Pelicans are a species I should train my lens on more often. While they’re sitting on the water they often don’t make a very interesting subject but getting that huge 16 lb. body airborne is a real struggle so photos of them taking off have much more interest for many of us.
American Avocet Takeoff Series
Getting three takeoff shots in a series like this is pretty unusual for me, especially since I didn’t clip any body parts. Yesterday was mostly a good day at Bear River MBR but I saw some very disturbing conditions while I was there.
Hummingbird Takeoff Series Illustrating The Fickleness of Gorget Colors
Gray Catbird Playing Relentless Cat And Mouse Games With Me
This darn bird was having fun at my expense for most of my morning in the mountains yesterday.
Yellow Warbler Takeoff
Male Red-winged Blackbird In Flight
Another reason I tend to shoot at higher shutter speeds than most bird photographers and this time it still wasn’t enough.
American Bittern Taking Off And In Flight
The American Bittern is solitary and cryptically colored. Throw in its secretive nature and inaccessible habitats and you have a species that I rarely see so getting photos of one taking off and in flight made my day yesterday.
Vesper Sparrow Perched And Taking Off From Sagebrush
Willet – Two Shots I Like And One That Broke My Heart
I got many photos I like of this bird but I screwed up on the only one that could have been spectacular.
Red-tailed Hawk Faking Me Out
Rufous Red-tailed Hawk In A Takeoff Posture I Love
If you’re getting tired of photos of the rufous red-tail please bear with me. These photos were taken yesterday morning and one of them is among my favorites.
Red-tailed Hawk In Flight – A Compositional Conundrum
This may turn out to be one of my favorite Red-tailed Hawk flight shots but I’m undecided about its composition.
