As the seasons change so does my way of thinking regarding a favorite bird to photograph. As much as I like the winter owls and all raptors in-between…Peregrines still top the list.

Balancing Act
Swainson Hawk (juvenile) performs a balancing act along the roadway on a steel strand that runs between poles. You would think it’s a little difficult for them to grab…but apparently not.
Morning Coffee Interruption
Back door open enjoying that first morning cup of coffee. Along with the birds singing as I worked on some recent photos…then dead silence.
Looking up only to see the possible reason for the sudden hush. Across the back lane was a juvenile Cooper’s Hawk who had dropped in for a visit.
Juveniles who tend to be very human tolerant by nature was about to be my first subject of the day.
It was a grab the camera and walk out to the back lane kind of a shoot that morning…then back to finish my morning coffee.
