Snow Geese In Skagit Valley
We spotted the Snow Geese off of Field Road in the Skagit Valley (WA) on March 15. I shot this in 4K video and using a small boom microphone with wind suppression. The objective was to get as pure a sound and picture as possible of the spectacular defensive move by Snow Geese to an over head predator.

Dogfight - Crows vs Red tailed Hawk
Просмотров 4,5 тыс.Год назад
Crows harassing a Red-tailed Hawk reminds me of a dogfight between agile aircraft. This event between two crows and one Red-tail lasted 10 minutes and I edited out most of the scenes without crows or other objects to highlight the methods of attack for the crows. I used a long telephoto lens and shot in slow motion.

A brief encounter with two young Kestrels playing in a snag is documented in this video. This "play" seems to be practicing various moves they will need during their lives as they persue prey and protect themselves from attackers.

    If you want to see one in the UK you may strike lucky if you visit the Hawk Conservancy Trust in Hampshire, UK. They have a female who is currently flying in their bird of prey flying demonstrations and she's HUGE - with birds of prey females are bigger than males. If you go to their website they have a photographic competition and you can find at least two pictures of her there.

    There is still enough un developed Farm Land in Skagit County for the Geese to winter there'. Sadly most of Western Washington hosts several million people and with the development that goes with population quadrupling there is less and less Farm Land, Ponds and Lakes where Geese and Ducks to nest and raise their young.

    This was a very informative video with an excellent production quality! The Steller's Sea Eagle is so amazing. Too bad they don't live in the Galapagos Islands or somewhere that seagulls run amuck. Where I live the seagulls eat the chicks and eggs of endangered shorebirds. "Seagulls are classed as migratory and therefore are protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918. This makes it illegal to pursue, hunt, kill or sell gulls as well as being against the law to disturb, destroy or move any active seagull nest."

      Open-country birds like wagtails, phoebes, and pipits, and the Spotted Sandpiper, and probably more. One study concluded it is meant to tell predators that they (the predator) have been seen and I'm not worth pursuing.
