Day 142

Monday, May 19, 2014

Something other than the backyard bunch… I was down by the River and had the best and worst of timing…before I saw this Osprey, there was another, with a fish in its claws. (1/500s f/8.0 ISO250 300mm +1 stop Canon 7D) As I was driving down the road to where I usually stop, the Osprey […]

Day 141: An Afternoon in the Barrow Backyard Bird Sanctuary…

Sunday, May 18, 2014

A fun time with finches and doves… I would say a female Lesser Goldfinch, but both my guides say this is well outside of its range.  So it is probably a female American Goldfinch.  It looks more like a Lesser to me… (1/90s f/8.0 ISO200 300mm +1/2 stop Canon 7D) A wallpaper version of the photo […]

A Common Loon. (1/500s f/6.7 ISO400 300mm +1/2 stop Canon 7D) If it seems like there are a lot of Loon photos this year, well, there are.  There were a lot of Loons.  I don’t think I saw but one last year, and none the year before! ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

From down on the Missouri… This is a Horned Grebe. (1/1500s f/6.7 ISO250 400mm Canon 7D) I didn’t realize this wasn’t an Eared Grebe until I got home and looked at the photos.
