Today I wanted to share an assortment of spring birds all photographed at Bear River MBR<\/span><\/a> yesterday on a bright and beautiful morning.<\/p>\n

\"DisplayingDisplaying male Yellow-headed Blackbird in morning light \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/640, ISO 500, Nikkor 500mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

My photos are in the order that they were taken starting with a male Yellow-head Blackbird in soft, warm light as he displayed next to the road. He was really throwing himself into his display.<\/p>\n

\"MaleMale Yellow-headed Blackbird with wings raised \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/640, ISO 500, Nikkor 500mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

When he was finished displaying he raised both his wings over his back before he took flight. The warm light made his dark feathers glow. Throughout the morning I could hear the calls of Yellow-headed Blackbirds practically the entire way around the auto tour route on the refuge.<\/p>\n

\"FemaleFemale Red-breasted Merganser on the Bear River \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/800, ISO 500, Nikkor 500mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

I was excited to see Red-breasted Mergansers in several locations yesterday morning. This female was swimming in the river just before I got to the auto tour route.<\/p>\n

\"MaleMale Red-breasted Merganser on the Bear River \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/1600, ISO 500, Nikkor 500mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

I also found a male Red-breasted Merganser with her. He isn’t in his breeding plumage but the really dark feathers around his eye indicate that he is a male. Female Red-breasted Mergansers never have those dark feathers around their eyes.<\/p>\n

Red-breasted Mergansers do not breed here in Utah. They are just passing through on their way to their breeding grounds.<\/p>\n

\"ForagingForaging adult male Long-billed Curlew \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/1000, ISO 500, Nikkor 500mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

When I spotted this male Long-billed Curlew next to the road on the auto tour route I was happy to get a few photos of him in the green grasses.<\/p>\n

\"MaleMale Long-billed Curlew foraging in spring grasses \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/1000, ISO 500, Nikkor 500mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

I was even more delighted that the male Long-billed Curlew was so intent on foraging for his breakfast that he walked even closer to where I sat and photographed him from inside a vehicle being used as a mobile blind. Soon after this photo was taken the curlew called, lifted off and headed out into the marsh.<\/p>\n

It won’t be long before there will be tiny Long-billed Curlew chicks at the refuge.<\/p>\n

\"PairPair of Sandhill Cranes on the auto tour loop road \u2013 Nikon D500, f10, 1\/1250, ISO 500, Nikkor 500mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

I heard the calls of these Sandhill Cranes before I spotted them standing on the road of the north side of the auto tour route. I was able to take a series of photos of them side by side before they lifted off to join another pair of cranes out in the wetlands close to the road.<\/p>\n

\"Double-crestedDouble-crested Cormorant and Forster’s Terns \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/1600, ISO 500, Nikkor 500mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

Shortly after photographing the cranes I spotted and took a few images of my first of the year Forster’s Terns that were resting next to a Double-crested Cormorant. I was delighted to see the terns on the wing and hear their calls over the marshes.<\/p>\n

\"AdultAdult American White Pelican flock at Bear River \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/5000, ISO 500, Nikkor 500mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

I saw American White Pelicans before I got to the auto tour route but didn’t photograph them until I was on the west side of the loop. There were several flocks along that portion of the loop that were in beautiful light. Some of the pelicans were resting, some of them were foraging, and some were simply swimming in the blue waters.<\/p>\n

\"AdultAdult American White Pelican lift off at Bear River \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/3200, ISO 500, Nikkor 500mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

I was happy to take photos of the pelicans as they lifted off from the cool, sparkling water. They sure make a lot of noise as they take off with their wings and feet slapping the water.<\/p>\n

\"SpringSpring American White Pelican in flight \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/3200, ISO 400, Nikkor 400mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

And photos of them as they flew past me with the distant Promontory Mountains in the background.<\/p>\n

Recently on social media I have seen a few people state that only the male American White Pelicans have the “horns” on their bills. That is not the case. Both male and female American White Pelicans show the “horns” at this time of the year.<\/p>\n

From Birds of the World<\/span><\/a> online:<\/p>\n

A highly fibrous, epidermal plate arises vertically and dorsomedially about one third distance from tip of upper mandible, plate (somewhat erroneously termed a “horn”) highly variable in size with base being 40-80 mm and height ranging from barely detectable to more than 60 mm, with that of males in pairs seemingly larger (FLK).<\/p>\n

\"StillStill Great Blue Heron in the marsh at Bear River MBR \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/2500, ISO 400, Nikkor 400mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

I also found large numbers of Black-crowned and Great Blue Herons on the west side of the auto tour route. Most of the herons were very skittish but this Great Blue Heron stuck around long enough for me to take a nice series of photos of it.<\/p>\n

\"White-facedWhite-faced Ibis scratching an itch \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/1250, ISO 400, +0.3 EV, Nikkor 400mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

White-faced Ibis were present in large numbers on the north, west, and part of the south side of the loop. I was delighted to take photos of this ibis as it scratched an itch. The photo made me giggle which is why I wanted to share this frame.<\/p>\n

\"SpringSpring Gadwall drake and hen \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/1250, ISO 400, Nikkor 400mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

Most of the ducks I saw were still quite wary of vehicles and humans but this pair of Gadwalls stuck around and I was glad to photograph them. Gadwalls are year round residents in northern Utah and this pair will likely soon have a brood of ducklings.<\/p>\n

\"Clark'sClark’s and Western Grebe side by side comparison \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/2000, ISO 400, Nikkor 400mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

I was over the moon excited when I took a series of photos of Clark’s and Western Grebes that were side by side. In this photo we can see the differences in the dark and white areas of their face and heads plus the differences in the color of their bills.<\/p>\n

Clark’s and Western Grebes can really<\/em> stretch their necks. In this photo the Western Grebe’s neck is stretched out more than the Clark’s.<\/p>\n

\"Clark'sClark’s and Western Grebe close up \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/2000, ISO 400, Nikkor 400mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

I loved this photo that showed the Western Grebe looking towards me head on while I had a nice profile view of the Clark’s Grebe.<\/p>\n

These two grebes were simply swimming close to each other. After I photographed them the Clark’s Grebe swam off with another Clark’s Grebe.<\/p>\n

\"WesternWestern Grebe with weeds for the Weed Ceremony \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/2000, ISO 400, Nikkor 400mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

And the Western Grebe? Well one of the pair of Western Grebes dove under the water and came up with a bill full of weeds and it appeared to want to perform the Weed Ceremony. The grebe it was with? It didn’t seem interested at all and kept swimming farther and farther away until this grebe eventually dropped the weeds from its bill and swam after the other bird.<\/p>\n

From All About Birds<\/span><\/a> online:<\/p>\n

The other display, known as the weed ceremony, is similarly complex but occurs later in the nesting season between a mated pair. The male and female move through behaviors dubbed neck-stretching, bob-shaking, and weed-diving, before coming to the astonishing weed-dancing, in which male and female face each other with aquatic vegetation in the bill and rise up vertically, their feet in constant motion, necks extended and bills rising upward, and then begin spiral movements around one another, their bills gracefully turning as they pivot around their partner.<\/p>\n

\"SpringSpring female Red-winged Blackbird \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/2500, ISO 400, Nikkor 400mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

I also photographed a female Red-winged Blackbird whose throat was pinkish-orange. The female that was near her didn’t show that wash of colors. That throat coloration is normal for female Red-winged Blackbirds but I don’t see it all that often so she grabbed my attention and I took a long series of images of her.<\/p>\n

\"EaredEared Grebe adult on the Bear River \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/640, ISO 400, Nikkor 400mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

After leaving the auto tour route to head back to the interstate I spotted an Eared Grebe swimming and foraging on the Bear River and I was able to take close up photos of it. I was thrilled because the grebe was in full breeding plumage, it was close, and that the light was still okay.<\/p>\n

\"SpringSpring Eared Grebe floating by on the Bear River \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/1250, ISO 400, Nikkor 400mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

Just a couple of hundred yards to the east I was able to take photos of another Eared Grebe where the water of the river looked bluer. There were quite a few other Eared Grebes out in the middle of the river that were too far away to take high quality images of them. Eared Grebes do breed in Utah and I would love to photograph them with their young.<\/p>\n

All in all, it was a wonderful and bird-filled morning at the refuge and I came home with more photos than I have taken in a long time.<\/p>\n

Life is<\/em> good.<\/p>\n
