The highlight of a visit to Bombay Hook NWR in early December is the spectacular sight and sound show you experience when thousands of snow geese suddenly take flight.

This past weekend I led a bird photography training session at a local state park. Participants got to see and photograph eagles, falcons, hawks, and owls in natural habitat settings. It is an incredible experience simply being in such close proximity to these magnificent creatures.

Over the next few posts I will share these favorites with you. My top ten countdown continues with these images: When heading out to do some nature and outdoor photography, I like many other photographers have several preconceived images in mind. Often enough, existing circumstances come together and permit us to capture these images. However, if you are like me, you will create some of...
