NEWS : Northern Saw-whet Owl Banding at Adkins Arboretum

These pictures were taken at the Adkins Arboretum in Tuckahoe State Park, Ridgley, Maryland. On selected nights in October and November, naturalists are banding and recording the migratory habits and health of the Northern Saw-whet owl. These owls are attracted to the mixed coniferous/deciduous woods in the Park, and are fall migrants from boreal forests in the Northern U.S. and Canada. And, yes, their extra-tame demeanor always seems to bring out the nurturing instincts in those who band the birds.

NEWS : Unusual Photo of Bird Behavior Captured

I have been lucky enough to capture a photo of an Eastern Kingbird soaring on the back of a Red-Tailed Hawk, as the hawk was flying with a captured snake. This behavior by Eastern Kingbirds has been reported, but rarely photographed.
