The Stories Behind My Images
Spring Male American Goldfinch
Yesterday I photographed this male American Goldfinch and thought about how he is as bright as the dandelions that are blooming now in the mountains.
Resting Willow Flycatcher
The last time I was up in the Wasatch Mountains I heard several "FITZ-bew" calls but didn't see a single Willow Flycatcher out in the open.
Subadult Peregrine Falcon
Last week before I found the Rock Wren I wrote about I also found a subadult Peregrine Falcon perched on a wooden post in the West Desert.
Trees, Shrubs, Wildflowers And A Butterfly
On a recent trip to the West Desert sky island mountains in Tooele County I found my lens pointed at trees, shrubs, wildflowers and a butterfly.
Nesting Lark Sparrow Photos
One of the first birds I heard singing three days ago in the West Desert of Tooele County was a Lark Sparrow perched on top of a sagebrush.
Spring Female Cassin’s Finch
When this female Cassin's Finch landed next to a creek two days ago in the West Desert I was happy to take her photo.
The Stories Behind My Images
Wasatch Mountain Range Sandhill Crane Images
Yesterday morning I spent ten minutes taking Sandhill Crane images high in the Wasatch Mountain Range after finding a pair of cranes next to an alpine creek.
Young Cedar Waxwing Photos
I found this young Cedar Waxwing in the remnants of a small aspen forest two days ago while I watched for other birds to come in to feed on ripe serviceberries.
Fledgling Gray Catbird Portraits
Yesterday morning while photographing a male Yellow Warbler I caught some movement with my peripheral vison and saw a young Gray Catbird very close to me.
Adult Cedar Waxwing In Morgan County
I was happy to photograph an adult Cedar Waxwing perched on top of a willow thicket in Morgan County high in the Wasatch Mountains four days ago.
