Utah Bird Photos

Since 1996 I have taken nearly 1,000,000 photos. Of those about 14,000 have made it to this website, including over 1,000 species of birds that have been viewed more than 400,000 times.



Birds of North America This gallery is the reason I created this site back in 2004, to house a growing collection of bird photographs. Six years later, there are now more than 5000 images of 450 species in this gallery.

World Travel and BIRDS As I have started traveling to other countries in search of birds I need to restructure how I am showing things, so I have moved all my foreign travel adventures to this folder to try and organize. Currently I have photos from Costa Rica, Mexico, Peru, France, South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Botswana.

    Probable Gilded Flicker160 viewsThis was the bird that I saw with Rick Fridell on the 9th near the houses. Note the elongated bars on the flanks, and the brownish colored crown against the gray face. Lytle Ranch, Beaver Dam Wash, Washington County, Utah. February 9, 2008Feb 12, 2008

    Probable Gilded Flicker119 viewsWhile guiding several photographers in the orchard this bird flew past and landed nearby. I didn't think this was the same bird as seen on the 9th with Rick Fridell, but it was different lighting and the bird was more obscured in the tree it landed in.
