My second ever Ferruginous Hawk! Near Chase Lake NWR in central North Dakota. We found a nest shortly after the photo was taken [May 2021; Canon R5 with Canon 100-500mm lens at 143mm; 1/1250 second at f5; ISO 160; handheld]

I love backlit aspen leaves...and this Red-naped Sapsucker only makes the scene better. First one I’ve ever photographed. Pinedale, Wyoming city park near nest. [Canon R5 with Canon 100-500mm lens at 343mm; 1/2000 second at f6.3; ISO 2500; handheld] #rednapedsapsucker #pinedalewy #pinedalewyoming #sparkystensaas #thephotonaturalist #woodpeckersofinstagram

[May 16, 2021] Lonely Sharp-tailed Grouse in central North Dakota. Truly a big landscape that is rich in birds (in spring and summer anyway) [Canon R5 with Canon 100-500mm lens at 186mm; 1/1250 second at f5; ISO 200; handheld; modified in Snapseed] #birdinlandscape #sharptailedgrouse #northdakota #northdakotawildlife #stutsmancounty #sparkystensaas #thephotonaturalist

[May 15, 2021] A pair of Eared Grebes crosses my path while heading home“ in my floating blind. Well past sunset. The camera sees the subtle colors of twilight better than my eyes! [Canon R5 with Canon 100-500mm lens at 176mm; 1/400 second at f5; ISO 160; on tripod head in floating blind]
