Meet our newest patient here at the Alaska Raptor Center, a Northern Pygmy Owl named King Owlbert by his rescuers. Owlbert arrived with a drooping wing, making flight difficult. We’ve given him a supportive wing wrap, plenty of tasty mice, and time to heal. #small #owls #adorable

Swainson’s Hawk mama telling me to f*ck off cause I parked too close to her grown ass kids. The kids had fledged but she was still the authority figure. Klamath Basin. And yes, I heeded the message and f*cked right off.

Figuring out how to use video as a photographic technique. It’s only 30 fps at 8K and while I can do 120 at 4K it’s just that the resolution isn’t enough to pull stills. This is a still from 8K footage and looks great. I processed the frame in Lightroom.
