A lady pronghorn giving a nice pose in front of a badlands background in Badlands National Park.
Second installment of my Badlands National Park wildlife series.
There's not much that would bother a Sparrowhawk in an urban garden (probably a domestic cat) but they're on full alert at all times. Not long after this was taken it flew away with its prey (Starling).
Brown Hare, despite the end of the breeding season these hares are still showing regularly, I sit for hours watching their antics sometimes I think they're watching me as well.
The prairie dogs went on alert when this bison dropped and started to scratch its back rolling on the ground. Not something you want to be near or 'under'.
Capture made in North Dakota.
An Columbia White-tailed deer - an endangered species - is on alert in dense fog at Ridgefield, Washington.

Rufous Whistler (Pachycephala rufiventris) male
Diving back into the archives today, I may have to go back even further before our lock-down ends.

High Alert - Western Screech-Owl looking around. Very grateful to have an abundance of this species in my neighborhood. I watched a very powerful video about wildlife photography on youtube where the creator asked viewers the 3 W's for this craft: What, Who, Why?
I think these are really powerful questions that one needs to ask ever so often regarding wildlife photography or any hobby one invests serious time into. What are we trying to capture? With whom, or for whom are we trying to pursue this? Why are we pursuing this?
In a social media age, it's easy to fall victim to envy or lose sight of our goals when pursuing a hobby - which I am certainly guilty of. By stepping back, reducing my social media consumption, and asking these questions, I hope I can develop a gratitude for the wildlife around me that I take for granted and a newfound objective and focus with my work.

These ground squirrels at Newhall Park (Concord, CA) were much more skittish about our presence than squirrels we've seen in the area at other times. They kept a good distance from us, and the slightest movement on our part had them running. This image is from 21.8 meters.

My Canon RP has a built in fur-ball detector, complete with cute-o-meter! This little masked lapwing chick set all the alerts going at once!
Taken in our local village lake where it and its three siblings can wander safely in the residents front gardens.
Happy Feathery Friday!
Australasian Darter (Anhinga novaehollandiae) male
One from a visit to Newport Lakes on this day three years ago.
White-faced Heron (Egretta novaehollandiae)
As we approached the paddock to the east of the ponds one of the pair of Herons landed right in front of us.
