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.
Breaking from my desert series for a bit.
These four bull elk weren't at all concerned with my presence, but when a cow MOOSE wandered into the meadow they went on full alert, intently staring at her for a couple of minutes before deciding she wasn't a threat.
This occurred in Rocky Mountain National Park.
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.
Indian wild dogs, also known as dholes (Cuon alpinus) are highly social and intelligent predators found in forests across South and Southeast Asia. They are known for their distinctive reddish-brown fur, erect ears, and bushy tails.
These animals play a crucial role in maintaining ecological balance but are classified as endangered due to habitat loss and poaching.
An Columbia White-tailed deer - an endangered species - is on alert in dense fog at Ridgefield, Washington.
Encompassing more than 69,000 acres, the Forest Preserve District of Cook County, Illinois, is the largest forest preserve district in the United States, providing many opportunities for Chicago area residents to escape from the urban grind. But in places where bike paths and hiking trails abut busy highways, it’s a good idea to stay alert, lest one of those vehicles whizzing past should suddenly veer out of control. For a look at what can happen, check out the shot in the first comment, taken a couple of years ago at almost the same spot as the image above.
HFF!

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.

The Wilson's Snipe and Greater Yellow legs at Virginia Lake look very alert and aware of what is going on around them in this shot but at other times they go about their business as though unaware of us
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!

Peafowl is a common name for three bird species in the genera Pavo and Afropavo of the family Phasianidae, the pheasants and their allies. Male peafowl are referred to as peacocks, and female peafowl as peahens. Male peafowl are known for their piercing calls and their extravagant plumage, which is especially prominent in the Asiatic species, which have an eye-spotted 'tail' or 'train' of covert feathers, which they display as part of a courtship ritual.
Despite the length and size of the covert feathers, the peacock is still capable of flight. The peafowl lives mainly on the ground in open forests or on cultivable lands where it forages for berries and grains, and also preys on snakes, lizards and small rodents. It makes loud calls, which makes it easier to detect, and are often used to indicate the presence of a predator in the forest areas. It forages on the ground in small groups and usually escapes on foot through undergrowth and avoids flying, though it flies into tall trees to roost. 12496
Even in my near presence, this Coyote was alert for any other objects of interest. I'm not sure what it was looking at. There was only the Coyote and myself in a 1/2 mile by 1 mile open field.
