Discovering enchanting birdlife in a stunning desert oasis filled with granite rock formations and Joshua trees. Many fun encounters during a spring trip, capturing unforgettable moments through the lens. Let's dive into the beautiful birds in photographs!
Explore the vibrant birdlife around Kilauea Lighthouse on Kauai. Discover the diverse species of birds at this beautiful Hawaiian destination. Immerse yourself in the amazing birds I experienced at Kilauea Lighthouse.
Sharing some of the birds we met around Kauai. This island, known as the “garden island”, was beautiful at every glance.
The birds in Kauai are plentiful, including right on the doorstep of our rental condo! We enjoyed many cups of coffee watching the Nene wander by, and so many other birds in the yard!
A brief layover in the Honolulu Airport gave me my first Hawaii state birds! Some Pacific Golden-plovers on the runway, and a couple more in the beautiful garden area of the airport!
The Fall 2021 Sea and Sage Pelagic trip was really great. The boat left just after sunrise and returned just before sunset, and the day was full of fun birds and great people. Red-billed Tropicbirds were the highlight of the day!
The January 2020 Sea and Sage Pelagic trip was really great. The boat left just after sunrise and returned just before sunset, and the day was full of fun birds, gorgeous ocean views, and meeting some great people. I’m already looking forward to when I can join another Sea and Sage Pelagic trip!
This is a great trail for a quick morning or evening hike, or a great loop to do a few times if you are trail running or desperate to get out on your mountain bike! It’s easy to access and provides a great amount of wildlife and wilderness in a fairly busy area.
On our way out to camp in Joshua Tree, we made a quick stop to hike around the Big Morongo Canyon Preserve and see if any fall migration birds were hanging out in the area. It’s clear this is a “birder’s park”, so we’ll definitely be returning to see what else we can see here!
This Wildlife Refuge offers a great space to get away from the hustle of the city, and to enjoy some very peaceful and quiet space. If you enjoy watching birds, this is a great spot to visit!
There is so much to see along the South Rim at the Grand Canyon. The park has roads that run from the east at Desert View to the west at Hermit’s Rest and there is a lot to see in between. We did our best to see most of it!
