Yellow Warbler Amongst Willow Catkins
Lark Sparrow Gathering Nesting Material
West Desert Rock Wren
In eleven years of blogging about birds I’ve only posted photos of a Rock Wren a single time and for very good reason – in their typically rugged habitat they simply refuse to allow a close approach. But two days ago I got one of the aggravating little rascals in my viewfinder.
Back-To-Back Takeoffs – American Goldfinch
Male Belted Kingfisher In Flight
I know I’ve been posting a lot of kingfisher photos lately but as I’ve said in the past I can only post what I shoot.
The Yellow Warbler And The Beaver Pond
I probably like this shot more than I should. Maybe it’s mostly just because it’s different but there’s more to it than that.
An Unusually Dark Short-eared Owl Fledgling
Male Belted Kingfisher Diving On A Fish And Then Eating His Catch
And believe it or not, this time he brought the fish close to me before gobbling it down instead of carrying it far away like he’s done repeatedly in the past.
A Sneaky Coyote Hunting Sandhill Cranes
The coyote obviously had crane cutlets in mind for breakfast but the cranes seemed to be taunting him, even daring him to attack. The attitude and demeanor of the cranes seemed to say “Give it your best shot, Buster”.

bird photographer trying to capture kingfisher takeoff and flight shots. The fishing kingfisher had better luck than I did but I sure as hell had more fun.
My First Of Year Yellow Warbler
The return of Yellow Warblers in the spring is almost like having the sun come back after its long winter absence.
Belted Kingfisher Takeoff And Flight
White-faced Ibis Banking And Flaring In Flight Prior To Landing
