We were really lucky to come across these “Little Bee Eaters” whilst on safari in Samburu National Park. They didn’t sit still for long, always moving then flying away, but when they did I was fortunate enough to get this shot. / / (Samburu National Park – Kenya) / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /

this gang of Adelie penguins gave me a great opportunity for quite a series of entertaining photographs as they zoomed busily about their icy playground. This photo has become a symbol of connection and friendship among my own personal group of nearest and dearest friends.

Wild American kestrel (Falco sparverius) in flight, stooping from left to right (Taken at Eagle Bluffs Conservation Area, 5 miles southwest of Columbia, Missouri). Perhaps the most colorful raptor in the world, the American Kestrel is the most common falcon in North America. It is found from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego, and in towns as well as wild lands. Identifying marks inlcude small size, rufous back and tail, and two dark mustache marks on face. Male has blue-gray wings and a lightly spotted chest and belly. The larger female has rufous wings barred with black, and streaking on the chest. This particular bird is a female. Their call is a loud series of “klee-klee-klee” notes when excited. As with many other raptors in North America, their population n umbers dramatically declined in the 1950’s and 1960’s, but have increased greatly in recent decades with increasing deforestation of North America. They are aslo commonly called Sparrow hawk. Although hover-hunting is conspicuous, this foraging method actually is used rather infrequently. It is used most often when suitable perches are not available, or when winds are strong enough to create updrafts favorable to hovering. In winter in many southern parts of the range, female and male American Kestrels use different habitats. The female uses the preferred more open habitat, and the male uses areas with more trees. This situation appears to be the result of the females migrating south first and establishing winter territories. The males then are forced into the less preferred areas. Nestling kestrels back up, raise their tails, and squirt feces onto the walls of the nest cavity. The feces dry on the cavity walls and stay off the nestlings. The nest gets to be a smelly place, with feces on the walls and uneaten parts of small animals on the floor. Source used to construct this page: Smallwood, J. A., and D. M. Bird. 2002.

This is an old shot but it’s still a favorite of mine. I was staying on the coast for a couple of days and decided to drag myself out of bed at an obscene hour so that I could watch the sunrise. I strolled around the empty streets for a while just enjoying the quiet and waiting for Mother Nature’s show to begin. As the sky started to come alive with color I grabbed a front row seat so that I didn’t miss anything. Before I knew it, there were three pigeons sitting next to me, and the four of us watched the show together. It was one of the best mornings I have ever experienced. This shot was taken on the Matanzas River in Saint Augustine, Florida. 100% of the profits from the sale of this image will be donated to the American Bird Conservancy.

For those of you who remember my dream request series…I’m not quite through. I still have a few more to complete (you know who you are), and I only apologize for the delay…I spend way more time on my work these days…and this particular dream request I spent a lot of time on and finally was able to complete it. This dream request is for Julie Langford: / / Here is her dream request: / It would be to see an end to the human ignorance towards endangered primates – to see them at one with nature, cohabiting in peace and harmony – that would be a dream come true. I decided to go on a drive towards the wildlife refuge one morning…and spotted these 2 eagles in the trees…I have never been able to get a capture of 1 eagle let alone 2 at the same time, so I was completely thrilled. I spend a lot of time at the refuge…and have seen everything from deer, to moose, to canada geese….it’s definately a safe haven for our wild life. To learn more about our refuge you can visit: / http://www.fws.gov/kootenai/ Thank you Julie for letting me create your dream. :)

100% of proceeds received from Redbubble in respect to sales of this item, will be donated to Bush Heritage Australia Photo of a Gentoo Penguin taken during a snow storm on Curville Island Antarctic Peninsula. The Gentoo Penguin is listed as Near Threatened on the IUCN Red list of Threatened Species Melting sea ice and overfishing have triggered a dangerously rapid decline in penguin populations on the Antarctic peninsula – a direct result of global warming, warns a new report from the WWF. Temperatures on the frozen continent are rising five times faster than the global average due to the unprecedented rate of climate change, pushing four species perilously close to extinction. Warmer temperatures are forcing penguins to raise their young on increasingly thinner and more precarious ice floes, while stronger winds mean many eggs and chicks are being blown away from their parents before they are able to survive on their own. The gentoo, chinstrap and adélie – along with the emperor, the largest penguin species in the world – are now struggling to survive as melting sea ice destroys nesting sites and reduces vital food sources, such as krill.

I noticed when looking at this photo that the swan’s reflection is distorted by the small ripple of water dripping from her beak (as an aside, I love the ripple and was sooo excited to see I had actually captured it… ahem…). It occurred to me that much of the time the same thing happens with us… We look in the mirror and see a distorted reflection of ourselves… that we’re too fat or too skinny, that our hair is the wrong color/texture/style/length, that we’re not smart enough or good enough… But just like with this swan, the reflection isn’t a true representation of what’s really there. The swan is amazing in so many ways, and so are you, regardless of what you think that you see in the mirror. / . / For those that are curious, this was shot with the swan in bright light and a shutter speed of 1/1600s. This rendered essentially everything but the swan and her reflection black, and prevented her feathers from getting blown out. / . / 100% of the profits from the sale of this print will be donated to the American Bird Conservancy.
