- A personal favorite, the Northern Pygmy-Owl. I love any tiny predator. This little guy had just sneezed, adding a nice/disgusting pop of yellow to the image 😂 #birds #owls #npo #wildlifephotography #nature #colorado
- A mountain bluebird taken last spring. I’ve always particularly struggled getting good shots of these guys, they seem to taunt me. I’ll find one posing perfectly, raise my camera, try to get it framed up, and it’s gone. #birds #bluebird #wildlifephotography #colorado #nature
- A broad-tailed hummingbird from last summer. 1/8000 shutter speed. 124(ish) days until they return to Colorado. #birds #colorado #hummingbird #nature #wildlifephotography
- An American Avocet for this #WaderWednesday, taken last April. #birds #photography #colorado #nature #wildlife #wildlifephotography
- Grizzly bear in Grand Teton National Park, taken last fall. #mammals #grizzly #wildlife #nature #photography #wildlifephotography #gtnp
- An American Dipper hunting on St. Vrain Creek. To capture this shot, I laid belly-down in icy winter mountain runoff. I stayed as long as I could bear the cold. Brutal at the time, but I love that now I have a photo not just of a dipper, but of a memory. #birds #wildlifephotography #colorado
- Yellow warbler from this past summer. There are things I love about winter, but I really miss the color green. #birds #wildlifephotography #colorado #warbler
- A horned lark on a rainy day in the Pawnee National Grasslands, CO. #birds #wildlifephotography #colorado #hornedlark
- American Pika. Photographed in the alpine tundra of Colorado at around 12,000 ft. elevation. Hyper sensitive to heat, they can’t survive even brief exposure to temperatures above 77.9° F/ 25.5° C, making them a remarkable indicator species for climate change. #mammals #wildlifephotography #pika
- Black-capped chickadee from a couple falls ago. So much personality in these birds, very glad we get them year round. #birds #wildlifephotography #colorado #cobirds #chickadee
