Tree Swallow: A handsome aerialist

BONNERS FERRY — During the past several weeks I have been observing a remarkable darting bird. In fact he is so quick at times he is hard to follow in flight.

The Bobcat: A graceful, stealthy and extraordinary hunter!

I noticed the bobcat 40 yards ahead walking north on the one lane tour road that overlooks Myrtle Creek and the Kootenai National Wildlife Refuge ponds.

Sandhill cranes: Among nature’s greatest dancers

“To the east that early morning, strange dashes of red color shone through the blowing tops of prairie sedges where the sun touched the crowns of Sandhill cranes. That blood-red glint of life in the brown grasslands, that long calling — why should such fleeting moments pierce the heart? And yet they do.”
