The Stories Behind My Images
Roadside Fledgling Barred Owl With A Crawdad
There is an amazing story behind this photo of a fledgling Barred Owl with a crawdad, photographed at Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge in Oklahoma.
Blue Jay Portrait In Arkansas
For some people, a Blue Jay portrait might be a common image to capture, but for me, it's not common at all. This particular one was taken in Arkansas, not Utah.
White-tailed Deer Does And Fawn
The first mammals I photographed at Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge, Oklahoma were deer. Later in the morning, I found these White-tailed Deer does and fawn in a lotus-edged slough.
Tufted Titmouse In Arkansas
I'm visiting my friend and fellow photographer, Steve Creek, in Arkansas where I took images of this Tufted Titmouse at his bird feeder.
I’m A Dandelion
Because I was and always will be a Military or Army Brat, I will always identify myself as a Dandelion. I bloom wherever I set down roots.
Blooming Coreopsis And A Fly
This morning's coreopsis photo didn't bug me because it had a fly on one of the flowers. In fact the fly didn’t bother me at all.
The Stories Behind My Images
Red-breasted And White-breasted Nuthatch Photos
I'm sharing a Red-breasted Nuthatch photo taken in my yard in Utah, plus a White-breasted Nuthatch image taken in Steve Creek's yard in Arkansas this morning.
California Gull In Winter Plumage
While I was at my local pond three days ago, I was happy to photograph this California Gull in winter plumage that had just landed on the water.
Plastic Netting Will Kill This Pied-billed Grebe
Plastic netting will kill this Pied-billed Grebe unless myself or someone else can capture the grebe and remove the netting. The grebe will starve to death.
Utah Fox Squirrel Close Ups
I didn't have to travel far to take close-up photos of this Fox Squirrel. In fact, I photographed the squirrel when I got home from checking out my local pond.
