The bald eagle is the national symbol of the United States and appears on its seal. In the late 20th century it was on the brink of extirpation in the contiguous United States, but measures such as banning the practice of hunting bald eagles and banning the use of the harmful pesticide DDT slowed the decline of their population. Populations have since recovered, and the species' status was upgraded from "endangered" to "threatened" in 1995 and removed from the list altogether in 2007.

Which do you prefer?? Color or black and white/or closeup color or black and white?
A wolf's social structure is based on a family unit called a "pack," where a dominant breeding pair (known as "alphas") lead the group, with other members falling into a hierarchy including "betas" as second in command, and lower-ranking individuals called "omegas"; this structure is typically comprised of related individuals like parents, offspring, and sometimes extended family members, with complex social dynamics within the pack to maintain order and cooperation.

The cross fox is a variation of the red fox. It is identical in it's body as a red fox. They are slightly larger with a bushier tail. It's name comes from the the dark band of fur running down the back which is crossed at the shoulder with a horizontal dark band. Their back and sides range from mostly reddish with areas of grey fur and the muzzle, ears and legs are black. The long hairs of the tail are dark with the tip of the tail always being white.
It tends to be more abundant in northern regions and is rarer than the common red form, but not as rare than the even darker silver fox.

Heading out on an adventure. Going to Kalispell Montana to photograph animals in the snow. And since Glacier National Park is partially open and only a 30 minute drive I'll be visiting there again. The huge driftwood horse is outside an art gallery in White Fish. Awesome place to visit.

These are the wild horses of Onaqui. This herd is found south of Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. They are living wild and free in a very harsh environment but left alone they thrive. This is as nature is meant to be.

Do you know how to tell a female snowy owl from a male? Pretty easy if they are mature owls. Males are almost completely white usually between 3 and 4 years old. The females are white with dark bars or specks on their wings and back. Once the owlets loose their down they all are white with dark bars until they mature.

How quickly these babies grow! First images were taken in July 2023 and the last were taken in late September 2023. These Snowy Owl chicks were at the Oregon Zoo. The parents had arrived in early 2023 and it was thought the female was maybe too young to breed. But the pair surprised everyone with 5 baby owlets.
Tomorrow I will post a video of one of the baby owlets doing the sweetest little head bobs!
Snowy Owls are mostly found in the Arctic tundra but have occasionally come as far south in the winter as the Northern most states in the United States.
The snowy owl is a large, white owl that are found Arctic regions in North America and Eurasia. The males at maturity are mostly all white with females have more areas of black. They are diurnal meaning they hunt during the day. The yellow eyes are also a sign that these birds hunt during the day. The darker colored eyes of owls indicate they are nocturnal hunters.

In 2023 the people in Tualatin, Oregon, USA had the rare pleasure of seeing a black swan in a nature reserve. I spent many days there looking for this beauty and quite often found it. It was pretty easy to spot as it was the only black swan there. After the trail closed for the season it was not seen there again.
The black swan (Cygnus atratus) is a large waterbird, a species of swan which breeds mainly in the southeast and southwest regions of Australia. Within Australia, the black swan is nomadic, with erratic migration patterns dependent on climatic conditions. It is a large bird with black plumage and a red bill. It is a monogamous breeder, with both partners sharing incubation and cygnet-rearing duties.
