Adult Hooded Mergansers
Canada Geese goslings
A local goose nest had flooded in the spring and the eggs were afloat. I collected 5 eggs and put them on a heating pad, 3 hatched and two survived. The midland rehab center raised these birds to adults. Some may ask why since they are considered a nuisance. My answer to them is that everything has a right to live and how do you deny such beauty.

Sharp Shinned Hawk
This hawk hit the side of my house after a misdirected strike. Since the bird was stunned I took advantage of the few minutes I had to take some photos. Once the bird recovered, it swooped at me before taking off to a nearby tree. Luckily I had my camera on the right setting to capture this head shot.
