I’m often undecided on whether a scene will look better with direct light, or later with supposedly better atmospheric color. This particular scene loses sun 2 hours before sunset this time of year, so I snapped this just before the sun dipped below a nearby ridge. I wish it was closer to golden hour, but I’m happy with the definition the direct light puts on the various contours of the landscape. I wasn’t confident in the sunset colors happening, which turned out to be a good hunch. I guess I’ll go back and try some other time. . .
Named for its mewing call, but capable of a surprisingly complex and continuous song. A secretive bird that stays close to dense cover and rewards patience.
Best poser ever. Out front on the native Cabbage palm studying the feeders. Trying to figure out how to get up on them. Bad squirrel. Precious creature!
Thanks for the visits, faves and comments its greatly appreciated.

The Blue-gray Gnatcatcher (Polioptila caerulea) is a tiny, long-tailed songbird native to North America, known for its energetic behavior and high-pitched, nasal calls. This species inhabits deciduous woodlands, forest edges, shrublands, and riparian areas, often near water. It is the northernmost and only truly migratory member of its genus, breeding across much of the United States and southern Canada and wintering from the southern U.S. to Central America and the Caribbean.

I'm not sure if this is a feral cat or just a neighborhood cat that likes to sit under my bird feeders in which I shoo him/her away. It seems to be in pretty good health though.
I just got a Sigma 1.4 teleconverter in the mail yesterday so my feline friend became my first practice subject. The quality was still good in low light and it was hand held. So I was very pleased with the results and hopefully I can get a bit closer to skittish wildlife in the future.
I hope everyone enjoys this image! :D

This ground feeding babbler was akin to the Dunnock in its behaviour and size. It was also quite confiding as well so gave us quite close views.
Photographed after a very early start at a hide high up in the mountains
I almost gave up on tracking this fella but he circled back and dove into the snow after this frame. He didn't capture any voles on that attempt. I've been looking for this kind of shot from these harriers. That is, the full feather spread.
This gray fox surprised us by stepping out in the sunlight in late afternoon. We know it resides on our property but only occasionally get a glimpse of it as it quickly moves from one hiding place to another. A beautiful little creature.

The differences in appearance between chachalaca species tends to be somewhat subtle. Spending time with Plain Chachalacas in the Lower Rio Grande Valley this week got me thinking about the differences between them and the Gray-headed Chachalacas that are common in many parts of Costa Rica. Can you tell the difference?

The Gray Jay, or Canada Jay, also known as "camp robber" is a feisty little alpine bird that will literally land on you to steal your food. Which makes it one of the easiest birds to photograph - provided you cared to carry that long lens up the mountain.
No matter how many times I visit a place I have found that no two trips are the same. Earlier this month in Costa Rica was no different. On this trip one thing that really stood out for me was how many Gray-crowned Yellowthroats we saw and just how very cooperative they were. I’m not sure what exactly was different this time but I sure enjoyed all the yellowthroats.
We will be doing this trip again next spring, if you think you might be interested more information is available here: www.texastargetbirds.com/group-photo-trips/2018-costa-ric...
