Here’s another photo from my hike at McBride Canyon last week. This is a Red-tailed Hawk that was trying to see me as I tried to photograph him. I later saw him on another branch that had a better vantage point for both of us.

Here’s more photographs from the last week. It’s been wonderfully rainy all week, but getting good shots of birds has been difficult. the lake is up a couple of inches, though, and that’s a nice turnaround from weeks and weeks of dropping levels.

Here’s a few pictures that I didn’t get around to posting from late April and the first part of May, before we took off for Missouri.

I haven’t posted in a few weeks so I thought I’d catch up with a pretty large photo dump. I’ve been birding quite a lot but for some reason can’t seem to bring myself to do the drudge work of editing and posting. Meredith is up over 64 feet for the first time in nearly…
The Mississippi Kites seem to have headed south in the last week or so, although I did see one up at Palo Duro Reservoir two days ago. I’m a little sad to see them go-I always enjoy watching them raise their chicks. To make their going a bit easier, I spotted the first of the…
