A mule deer along Sonoita Creek

in Southern Arizona.

 

 

This Hooded Oriole along the Santa Cruz

River in Southern Arizona just couldn't

get enough yellow, so he perched in

a blooming Palo Verde tree.

 

 

In what at one time must have seemed

like cruel teasing to inmates, seagulls

soar freely over Alcatraz in

the San Francisco Bay.

 

 

Turkey Vultures in the  mountains

west of San Jose, Calif.

 

 

Because they live on open grassland with

relatively little cover, antelope are perhaps

the most challenging hoofed animals to

sneak up on, and thus among the most

difficult to photograph. This one is roaming

the Empire Ranch near Sonoita, Ariz.

 

 

Looking appropriately wise and

academic, this Great Horned

Owl was just hanging out in

a tree on the University of

Arizona campus. He, his wife

and kids lived on a high ledge

of a nearby building.

 

 

The only Arizona Cardinal who isn't a loser.

 

 

This Gila Monster lives inside an ancient Pueblo

atop Mt. Saint Clair not far from

Horseshoe Lake in Arizona.

 

 

An amorous lizard puts the moves on a stick

at the bottom of the Grand Canyon.

 

 

Pelicans near Tampa, Fla.

 

 

These elk were grazing inside a volcano north of Flagstaff before I spooked them up

onto the rim. No, that's not a joke, they were inside an ancient, dormant volcano

with a gently sloping cone containing a meadow surrounded by pine trees.

 

 

An energetic and absurdly friendly Flat

Coated Retriever is shown here in its

central Phoenix habitat. This rare species

is sometimes spotted in wilderness areas tagging

along with hikers but is more commonly seen

swimming and chasing tennis balls in urban

parks. The animal's tremendous speed, agility

and intelligence enable it to easily evade natural

predators such as city park rangers and paranoid

members of Home Owners Associations. Flat Coats

were considered endangered around World War II,

but thanks to a reintroduction effort this fine

English breed has increased its numbers in

the United States to more than 4,000

(depending which book you read).
