Broad-tailed Hummingbird (Selasphorus platycercus). Observed, actually first heard — loud chirps at the Lily Lake area in Rocky Mountain National Park. Lily lake is on Colorado highway 7 just outside of Estes Park. I would come back to Lily Lake many times over the time I was working part time in Boulder, Colorado just to look for the Broad-tailed Hummingbirds. Other images of Broad-tailed Hummingbirds are available in my PhotoShelter Gallery.
Eighteen-Years Ago Today. World Life List #63. Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado.
Red-winged Blackbird (Agelaius phoeniceus). Observed at Lily Lake in Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado. More images of Red-winged Blackbirds are available in my PhotoShelter Gallery.
Mountain Chickadee (Poecile gambeli). Observed during a walk in Moraine Park in Rocky Mountain National Park. While working part time in Boulder, I would spend time in Rocky Mountain National Park almost every weekend. It gave me a chance to try out various camera/lens combinations to capture images of the wildlife in the park.
Yellow-rumped Warbler (Setophaga coronata) hiding in an Aspen tree. Observed during a walk in Moraine Park in Rocky Mountain National Park. While working part time in Boulder, I would spend time in Rocky Mountain National Park almost every weekend. It gave me a chance to try out various camera/lens combinations to capture images of the wildlife in the park. For this image I used a Nikon D2xs camera and 105 mm f/2.8 VR macro lens. I have more images of Yellow-rumped Warblers in my PhotoShelter Gallery.
Clark’s Nutcracker (Nucifraga columbiana) on top of a tree. Morning visit to Moraine Park in Rocky Mountain National Park. Additional images of Clark’s Nutcrackers are available in my PhotoShelter Gallery.
Red Crossbill (Loxia curvirostra) on top of a pine tree. Apparently, the “crossed bill” at the front of its beak helps the bird remove seeds from conifer cones. The females are yellow (or green) and the males are red. This female Red Crossbill was viewed during a morning visit to Moraine Park in Rocky Mountain National Park. Additional images of both male and female Red Crossbills are available in my PhotoShelter Gallery.
