❤️ Caught a flash of crimson in flight! Moments like this remind me why I love wildlife photography. The beauty, speed, and grace of a Northern Cardinal never fail to amaze.

Caught in mid-maneuver, a red-throated hummingbird brakes to avoid another hummingbird that dove at him. I love the cobweb stuck to his tail, like a streamer.

A ruby-throated hummingbird sat quietly on a nearby branch and flashed his brilliant plumage at me. As I get older, I cherish these moments more and more.

For one sacred moment, the world held its breath, and a Ruby-throated hummingbird became poetry.

I’m not quite sure what he did, but I bet this chipping sparrow regrets his life decisions right about now.

This may be my first bird photo. A boreal owl, taken in the winter of 1990, at the University of Minnesota, Duluth. It was published in the UMD Statesman student newspaper, when I was the Editor-in-Chief. In sub-zero temps, the owl roosted just outside the windows of the administration building, watching students for hours. The photo was taken with a Minolta X300, 35mm film camera, with a 200mm lens, and 400 ISO Kodak T-Max bulk film, that I rolled, developed and printed myself, in the newspaper darkroom. I found the photo in my garage today with a bunch of newspaper awards, articles, and photos from my reporter days. Definitely a walk down memory lane.

A red-breasted nuthatch frolics in the white pines, 30-feet off the ground. I sit on my second-story deck, watching the miracle of nature unfold in front of me.
