Blue Grouse

Posted By Tyler Allred
This was taken in central Utah, where I was camping this past weekend.... the elevation was about 10,000 ft. I was primarily looking for mule deer, but ran across several blue grouse to photograph as well.
Cheers,
Ty

Clarks Nutcracker

Posted By Tyler Allred
This is another shot from my trip to the central Utah mountains. These were flying around all the time, but were quite difficult to approach.

Mountain Bluebird (female)

Posted By Tyler Allred
This one was also taken during my weekend in central Utah. Sorry about the image quality, but the bird was pretty far away. I like the blue blotches on the gray neck.

This was taken today, 9/4/03, near Heber City, Utah. It only allowed one frame to be shot before flying.

Osprey Habitat Photo

Posted By Tyler Allred
Here is a shot of the osprey nest I have been following all summer. The smaller trees are hawthornes and the tree is a narrow leaf cottonwood.

Red-tailed Hawk in Flight

Posted By Tyler Allred
This bird was flying in the distance, so I used my predator call (squeaker) and it came right in. It flew right over me but I blew the closer shots (too much zoom). This one is interesting because of the wing and tail positions.
Cheers,
Tyler

Common Nighthawk - Daytime Pose

Posted By Tyler Allred
I found one Cal!

This one was taken with the D100 at prime focus of the Celestron 5 (1250mm). The image was cropped and reduced to 1/2 native resolution. The wind was blowing and ruffled the feathers a little bit.

Cheers,
Tyler

Provo, Utah - from the mountains above

Posted By Tyler Allred
Taken from Squaw Peak, looking southwest. That's Utah Lake in the background, where I take many of my wildlife photos. I love Utah!
