    On a windy morning this Northern Harrier kept flying by, hunting for a meal. Nikon Z9 NIKKOR Z180-600 f 5.6-6.3 VR + 1.4 TC

    I've been looking for a bald eagle for almost three years, since moving to Michigan. I happened upon this guy in a tree about three miles from, without a camera. Just for grins I went home and grabbed my camera, not expecting to find the eagle still in the tree waiting for me. He took off and I was lucky enough to capture this magnificent bird in flight.

    Pelican in flight at Monterey, 2021. I was using my Canon Eos 5D Mark IV with a 400 mm lens and trying to capture feeding pelicans. I came away with this as a prize.

    I was returning from the Grand Canyon and came across this pair of Osprey. I set up my Nikon Z9 with a Nikkor 180-600mm f 5.6-6.3 VR . I watched as they added sticks and nesting material to their nest. Eventually the male Osprey flew in with a fish in his talons and delivered it to his mate.

    While hiking in Sedona last June, I heard a birdsong that I didn't recognize. Following the sound I came across this Northern Cardinal singing to the afternoon sun for my birthday. I shot this with my Bikon Z9 and a 180-600mm f 5.6-6.3 VR lens. I use back button focus with bird character recognition and continuous focus for shooting birds. Higher shutter speeds for small birds if flight, but since he was relatively stationary, I used a slower speed to lower ISO.

    I often see this Coyote hunting in this pasture

    I often visit local wildlife areas where the migrating birds frequent on their journey to more temperate climate. This picture was taken with my Z9 with a 180-600mm lens mounted. The ponds were calm this morning and presented beautiful reflections. I framed this photo to balance the top and bottom of the subject and left room for them to continue on to the left. The rule of thirds governed the composition.
