eurasian eagle owl - good shots!

I've got other owl photos - but they're buried somewhere on my harddrive.

How does one go about photographing wild owls anyway? I mean I found one floating face-down in my pond last week, but I think that was too easy.

Here's something I saw this morning that's only slightly less morbid - a House Finch with what appears to be a large tumor on the side of its head. The Pine Siskin to the left looks like it lost its appetite.





(The poor quality of the photos is because the windows were covered in hard water stains.)

What type of bird is the one in the first couple of photos? It looks a lot like our various Emberizine sparrows... I think the only members of that family that are found in the Old World are the longspurs, though.

Natalie - looks like a female or juvenile House Sparrow to me.

I have various photos from the past year that I just never uploaded until now.

Backyard:
House Finches at feeder

Goldfinches at Feeder

Western Scrub Jay

Juvenile Red-Shouldered Hawk let me get surprisingly close before flying away with the bird it was eating

Inside the house:
Harvey!

At the Oakland Zoo:
Blue and Gold Macaw

Griffon Vulture

Lesser Flamingos and African Spoonbills

Malayan Wreathed Hornbill

Egyptian Goose

Crowned Crane

Pied Crows

"four and twenty blackbirds baked into a pie..."

Here's a few from the garden this morning. Adam and I spotted a king parrot last night, will have to try and shoot him too

Bad pics of a Prothonotary Warbler, quite a rare species around here...
