Wildlife of Hawaii

The Wildlife of Hawaii page has been updated with new photos from our most recent trip. I may have missed out on a terrific moment for a photograph when a monk seal swam past on the beach, but the green sea turtles, nene geese, spinner dolphins, and more made up for it. Check out the gallery!

Wildlife of Wyoming

I’ve updated the Wildlife of Wyoming photo gallery to include the many animals we saw in June in Yellowstone, Grand Teton, and the surrounding areas.

I did realize that at the moment we saw the Grizzly Bears we were actually in Montana, and they have been added to the Wildlife of Montana gallery :). The Beartooth Highway crosses between Montana and Wyoming on the scenic roadway between Yellowstone and Red Loge, Montana.

Wildlife of Arkansas

I’ve created another wildlife photography page in our never-ending quest to collect a glimpse of nature’s denizens in all the places that we travel. We were in Arkansas in October of 2023 and spent enough time outdoors at places like Hot Springs National Park, Garvan Woodland Gardens, Eureka Springs and Mount Magazine to discover some of its wildlife. 

It’s a smaller collection since we were there only a few days Wildlife of Arkansas. And as always a lot of what we saw escaped our ability to capture it with our camera. But here is the Wildlife of Arkansas.

Ring of Fire Eclipse, Oct 14, 2023

We weren’t far enough south to see the full ring of fire, but in Colorado we saw a pretty cool partial eclipse. Starting from the first image is at 9:45 AM MDT and the last in the sequence is at maximum at 10:36 AM MDT.

Wildlife of Montana

Wildlife of Montana

Montana now joins the list of wildlife photography pages. In only a few days we saw quite a number of animals and enjoyed the beautiful flora as well. It was unseasonably warm and I think that led to some animals retreating to higher and more remote ground, but I think you’ll find the gallery quite good all the same. View the gallery...

Backyard Birds

This evening I was able to photograph a a few of our feathered friends from in my backyard. Every year we have a return of the cliff swallows to a nest they built on our gutter. This time I was able to not only see the parent birds but the growing baby bird within.

Also we had a lot of ruby-throated hummingbirds fluttering around and I was able to get some nice images of them perched and one taking flight.
