IMPORTANT UPDATE NOTICE ABOUT OUR WEBSITE:
I am working on placing all images of a particular species into their respective SPECIES galleries,
therefore, to see many of the newest and best images of a species, use the "IMAGE LIST" link
and search on the species you want to view.  I am Not adding any new images to the specific
group galleries (i.e. Hummingbirds) until this work is complete.

The GALLERIES web pages are becoming more and more out of date as I do this.
As of this date, I'm working through the S's alphabetically (i.e. Sparrows)
and continuing daily to work through till the end (Common Yellowthroat)!
HOWEVER, there are some species galleries S thru Y that are complete so check!


One last note.  Many bird websites seem to want to show you "pretty" pictures that
are obviously beautiful, however, I've attempted to lean toward images of a species
which give more of a 'learning' experience by showing different angles and also
different lighting sometimes, as that is the "real" world we typically view them,
especially one we may not be all that familiar with.  I hope this web site can
provide more of a learning experience to others and that has been my ambition.

Photographer Bio Help Individual Galleries

Enjoy the beauty of many North America's birds and mammals!  Nearly 800 species of
birds plus many large mammals and cetaceans, including a number of the rarest North American
birds from places like Attu Island Alaska, Texas, SE Arizona, Florida, Nova Scotia, and
California, to name just a few!  And, two special galleries of the Birds of Japan.

A special note:  Those who do photography, especially taking literally thousands of images,
realize the painstaking time involved in not just obtaining their images, but the post processing
of them and placing them on a website.  What you see on this site has taken me over 40 years
of hard work.  But that is only what is behind me.  At any one moment there are many thousands
of recently taken images which need to be worked and placed on the site. This site has gone through
many updates over the past 12+ years however 90% of the images are from the "old" days of film and
bad resolution monitors to attempt to scan and process acceptable images to post on the site.
Directly below is a link to the most recent images (mostly new, with a few past improvements) which
are remarkably better due mostly in part from digital cameras and post processing.  For those wishing
only to see the "prettiest" of images, click on NEWEST IMAGES link.  For those looking for
all the species images (nearly 800), go to the galleries and see them all, old and new.
Thx for taking the time to read this!!!
