Otters At Fords Pond
Elijah and I went out to Fords Pond again to see the River Otters a week or so ago and they did not disappoint! They put on quite a display of there hunting skills catching numerous fish while we were there.
Rare Great Gray Owl Nest
I had the privilege of going to see a super rare Great Gray Owl nest recently to monitor nesting progress with a local wildlife biologist here in Douglas County! We were able to see the mom near her nest, which had two chicks! Happy Mother's Day!

Nesting Season
Nesting season has started! There are already multiple goose and duck families with newborn goslings and ducklings out and about in the Stewart Park Natural Area! I was able to photograph these two goslings enjoying the sunny weather yesterday morning.

Ospreys Return
As spring arrives, so do the Ospreys! After a long winter away, the Ospreys are beginning to return to nest. I got this video of an Osprey eating a fish on top of a power pole a few days ago.

Red-winged Blackbird At Fords Pond
I was able to photograph this beautiful Red-winged Blackbird at Fords Pond a couple of days ago. These birds live here year-round and are most commonly found near ponds and in wetlands. In spring they like to nest among the reeds and cattails in these areas.

Anna’s Hummingbird
I photographed this beautiful male Anna’s Hummingbird last fall. This is one of my favorite hummingbird shots! It really shows the amazing iridescent colors on its face!

Bird Nesting Season Starts In February And March
As nesting season approaches in the next few months, you will start to see lots of birds pairing up as they begin to look for a place to nest. I took this video of a female Anna’s Hummingbird feeding her babies a couple of years ago. Pretty fun to watch!
