    Lake Clark National Park

    It looks like Alaska is included as part of the PNW on this forum, so I'll post this in Wildlife and Animals rather than the Trip Reports forum. Last month I made a short excursion to Alaska to check out Lake Clark National Park for the first time. This is a very popular spot with photographers...

    Ridgefield National Wildlife Refuge 9-6&9-2018

    Pretty cool seeing that leucistic nutria. I'll have to make it down there at some point. Max

    Yellowstone Spring 2018

    Thanks Bill. The goats in the park are usually seen through scopes on the some of the peaks in the northeast corner, but occasionally you'll see them closer in the northwest. Some people consider them to be invasive, encroaching on bighorn sheep territory, though as far as I know it's a...

    Yellowstone Spring 2018

    I've completed and uploaded the photos from my annual May/June trip to Yellowstone. It was a good trip for a variety of species (spring usually is there), but during my photo tour in the first week of June we had remarkable luck checking every big daily goal we set for ourselves... that almost...

    Idaho Birds & Other New PNW Wildlife Photos

    I've updated my ongoing Pacific Northwest 2018 gallery with photos from my May Idaho and Montana visits, as well as a few miscellaneous shots from my recent San Juan Islands tour (where I photographed all the foxes). View the full gallery here. Here's a short preview: A fox kit peeks out of...

    Woodway Deer

    Wow. How great to see fawns in our local neighborhoods. We had a deer randomly pop up in Northgate a few weeks ago. Max

    San Juan Island Foxes

    Yup, though we were fortunate to have them to ourselves. I've been wanting to get up there ever since a friend shared a photo of a brown fox a few years ago. I had never seen a brown fox before! Max

    San Juan Island Foxes

    I led a short tour for a client last week up in the San Juans. We found plenty of wildlife, including the multicolored red foxes up there. They're such beauties, with orange, black and silver coats (they even come in brown, but we didn't see any of those). I've uploaded a new photo gallery...

    Ireland 2018

    In this case I took my smallest body (7D Mark II, which I had been planning to sell), a 17-40mm and a 70-200mm and teleconverter. I'd prefer to have a 5DIII or 5DIV instead of the 7DII, but it worked okay since I never had to bump the ISO too high during the trip. Max

    Ireland 2018

    I took a family trip to Ireland in late April/early May. Though it was more of a casual trip, I did bring one camera body along to capture a few of the cultural, historical and natural sites we visited. It was a fun trip, with some nice weather that allowed us to get out on foot a fair amount...

    Yellowstone Winter 2018

    Forgot to post this back in April when I published the photos... I spend a couple weeks in Yellowstone this winter, primarily leading two photo tours. My winter tours are split between the park's northern range (the only place you can drive in a car during winter months, as the roads are...

    Edmonds (WA) Coyotes

    You get to the point as a photographer where the big goals and standout moments you're seeking typically involve some sort of unique behavior. I think this qualifies. :) Max

    Nice sequence, Bill! Max

    About that "Pacific Northwest" bit...

    Exactly! I'm always concentrating on getting the geographic part right that I didn't realize animal-specific categories might work better. ;)

    The breach: full series (warning - image heavy)

    Very lucky to see this. It's often a bit underwhelming photography-wise unless you can get a breach or spy-hopping behavior. Looks like you had great weather for it too. Max

    About that "Pacific Northwest" bit...

    I'm glad for the clarification. I still try to post my non-PNW stuff in the appropriate forum, but I appreciate when things are moved to the "correct" place anyway (e.g., when you moved my goose post to the Birds forum). Max

    Canada Goose Courtship

    I had a day tour in BC last week, which was highlighted by some nice bird activity. Something new for me was witnessing Canada goose courtship. The geese take turns dipping their heads in the water and splashing around, to show each other they're ready to mate. There was a lot of this going...

    Yellowstone Winter 2014

    I've been catching up on processing past trip photos. One of the recent galleries I finally got up on my website was my Yellowstone Winter 2014 gallery, containing images from January and December trips that year. You can see the full gallery here. A preview is below. Before sunrise at...

    Costa Rica 2013

    I've been fortunate to visit Costa Rica a number of times over the years, and will be heading back to lead a tour next month. In 2013 I got to spend a full month there. I was leading a couple of tours, and I also had some time in between to fit in some scouting. This ended up being the best...

    Cali 2017

    Where in California? I've seen some of these species in Pinnacles NP, which is a great area for bobcats too. Max
