The Stories Behind My Images

I was thrilled to find and photograph a male Blue-gray Gnatcatcher in spring breeding plumage yesterday at the edge of a juniper woodland in Tooele County.
West Desert Mountain Bluebird
It is always lovely to have a male Mountain Bluebird like this one I found in the West Desert in my viewfinder because they rival the color of the sky overhead.

Yesterday morning I was excited to spot a bull Moose bedded down and nearly hidden from view while I was up in Morgan County high in the Wasatch Mountains.
