Model: actor/magician/wolf activist Steve Wastell with 3 wolf-pups.
These pups were 3 weeks old when Steve and his wife rescued them and their mom from an illegal backyard breader. Here they are 8 weeks old and a total handful.
The title refers to predators at the top of the food chain. I wanted this shot to be a combo of cute/scary :)

Buteo jamaicensis immature,
San Luis Obispo Co., California
I was curious what was up there--what is a predator wary of? A larger predator? But I took this photo from inside my car and couldn't look up immediately.

I knew the leopard was hiding in a ditch next to the road and sat waiting for it to reappear. Without a sound and out of nowhere it suddenly stood on the roadside 8 meters away from my wide open car window, staring straight at me. I was so stunned that I nearly forgot to press the shutter button.

As I said yesterday Carson and I went adventuring around Lost Lake which can be seen here. Basically its this really nasty lake that's usually green because of algae and is surrounded by 200ft cliffs that we like to play on. Here I'm on a little ledge that drops right off. While exploring in this area we also made friends with a porcupine that we named Josey. He made super cute sounds too!

Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias) - Circle B Bar Reserve, Florida
This young Great Blue Heron struggled for 15 minutes working this fish down. Many times it got to the position in the photo before having to throw it back in the water and 'tenderize' it a little more.
I must add that I personally had similar poses and expressions on my vacation to Nova Scotia. I really took advantage of the fresh seafood.
Thanks for visiting!

Theodore Roosevelt National Park
Warning other residents of approaching predators and their intentions is an important part of a prairie dog town's social life. The rodents and the predators, like this coyote, get to know one another very closely over the years. The warning system seems to be highly effective, making you wonder just how rarely the hunt succeeds.
At any rate, to the extent I had an image in mind on this trip, I was hoping to be able to show something of this dance between prey and predator, a relationship in which the rodents have no less agency than the canids. Given my unwillingness to conceal myself from the animals I photograph, I wasn't sure I'd find a sufficiently cooperative coyote, but pupping season would presumably be the most promising time of the year. Still, I was very lucky, I think, when this male coyote let me tag along with him for ten minutes or so.
As for the sun vanishing behind clouds for a few minutes just then, oh well ...
An instant captured by the lens reveals the cruel brutality and beauty of nature. The moment is frozen in the photograph, immortalizing the brutality of survival, where life feeds on life, and the jungle continues its eternal dance of predator and prey. In this wild setting, beauty intertwines with cruelty, challenging us to contemplate the intrinsic complexity of the cycle of life.
