The local paper published my barred owl photo! Sometimes I love living in a small town. (Please note, I supplied most of the info for the caption but I would never call a barred owl a "hoot owl". I assume they got that colloquialism from the ...

I worked the closing shift at the clinic tonight, so I went birding this morning. It's a shame the lighting was so awful because the birds were very cooperative. Red headed woodpecker, osprey with fish, great blue heron, the resident crippled snow ...

I stopped by a local pond yesterday and found over 100 mallards and several black ducks. It was late in the afternoon, the light was waning and I couldn't get any good pics. I went back today after work, around 4pm. No black ducks and ...

Back to the same pond today after work! More ducks today, though still mostly mallards. I was excited to see the male pintail was still hanging around, and today I spotted a female. She is the fourth pintail I've ever seen (outside of photographs)...

I spent this morning up at my parents' "farm", as I wanted to clean out the run-in side of the barn where my llamas, pigeons, and geese hang out. I was pleased to find 5 active pigeon nests with some nice looking babies! Three pairs, two singles, ...

Caught this Hawk landing on the power lines outside the front windows. Might have said "Holy shit! Look at that Hawk!". Can't believe the camera would focus through the window to catch it though.

My eclectus - Sam - has been pulling his feathers. Front, sides ,neck and some back. I changed his diet, took him to the vet who said it was stress. Can't believe this as I let him out and take him over to the beach or outside. Any advice?

Buffleheads and a black duck. Please excuse the quality of the photos. It's almost too dark after work to get any decent pics.

A bird of beauty... As its name suggests, the Mandarin duck comes from East Asia and is arguably one of the most beautiful ducks in the world.

This fellow was running up and down the fence line trying to figure out how to get through. (The fence belongs to a deer farm, so it's probably 10' high box wire.) His buddy had made it over and had run off into a field, but this guy wasn't figuring...

A flock of 22 wild turkeys came up to scratch around under my parents' bird feeders. Luckily for them I'd just thrown out a bunch of scratch feed and whole corn with the hopes that I could lure birds closer to my GoPro set up. Unfortunately (for ...

A few weeks ago I posted pics of my baby homers. I checked on them today and all the survivors (7 of the 8: I ended up euthanizing the blind one because the vets I consulted thought it was painful) are doing great. Three are flying already--one is ...

I hope you find this photo interesting. Non-Australians may not know that the Brown Snake, though undramatic in appearance and very common, is also very dangerous.
