The Stories Behind My Images
Seven Years Of Daily Posts At On The Wing Photography
Today marks seven years of daily posts for me here at On The Wing Photography. Another year has gone by and another milestone has been reached.
Mourning Doves On Lichen Covered Rocks
I had mere seconds to take this photo of a pair of Mourning Doves perched on lichen covered rocks on a desert cliff face in Box Elder County yesterday morning.
Spring Gadwall Drake Photos
This morning I am sharing two simple Gadwall drake photos that I took last spring from the auto tour route at Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge.
Adult Black-crowned Night Heron In Flight
Almost a year ago I had this adult Black-crowned Night Heron in my viewfinder as it flew in front of the Promontory Mountains at Bear River MBR.
Black-capped Chickadee Hanging Out
On Sunday I had this delightfully cheery, tiny Black-capped Chickadee hanging from a branch in my viewfinder for a few moments in time.
Shedding Elk High In The Wasatch Mountains
I was pretty excited to spot a small herd of cow and yearling Elk grazing on a steep slope in a canyon high in the Wasatch Mountains this past Sunday.
The Stories Behind My Images
Red-tailed Hawk Pre-Lift Off
It's been about four years since I photographed this rufous Red-tailed Hawk in in a pre-lift off pose way up in northern Utah. This pose can be hard to capture.
Double-crested Cormorant on the Bear River
I photographed this adult Double-crested Cormorant at the end of March last spring as it swam by me on the Bear River. The color of its eyes was so striking.
Communing With Sandhill Cranes
I've been thinking a lot about Sandhill Cranes recently so I am going back in time to nine years ago today when I photographed them in Wayne County, Utah.
One Tranquil American Coot
Calm and tranquil, this American Coot photographed 3 days ago stood out from its typically aggressive and territorial behavior during the breeding season.
