Self-taught wildlife and bird photographer. Still learning.
Was afraid I didn't get any good Scarlet Macaw photos in Costa Rica, but I like this one.

I visited Caño Negro Wildlife Refuge in Costa Rica earlier this month. Tracked this Anhinga with her dinner as she moved upstream, downstream, crossed the river in front of us, and finally up on a branch.

Great Gray Owl, Two Harbors, Minnesota

A friend and I booked a trip to Sax Zim Bog last fall and lucked into a Great Gray irruption in northern Minnesota.

Haven't been out with my camera much this month, but we had a sunny day so I went looking for Bald Eagles along the Upper Mississippi River.

This Bald Eagle landed in a nearby tree to eat a fish. After about 10 minutes a Juvenile Bald Eagle tried to steal it.

On the Mississippi River between Minnesota and Wisconsin, November brings migrating Tundra Swans. There were a few hundred at the Shady Maple Overlook.

With last week's cold snap, they've probably continued their migration.

I hadn't seen any Pileated Woodpeckers this year until last last month and now I'm seeing them everywhere. This was at Goose Island, on the Upper Mississippi National Wildlife Refuge trail.
