3 Fabulous Bird Photographers

During the last week I’ve come across some fabulous bird photographers, courtesy of hummingbird2 whom I’m following on Twitter. I’d like to share these 3 fabulous bird photographers with you here.

#1 Matthew Studebaker has an expert eye for framing birds with elements of their natural habitat. Each bird he photographs shows wonderful plumage detail and the character of the bird comes through in the poses he captures. It’s really hard to choose a favorite, but take a look at Matthew’s red-shouldered hawk collection – exquisite! His photographs are accompanied by both the scientific and common names, with details of where and when the photo was taken, the camera he used, and technical settings. You can see Matthew’s complete online gallery at StudebakerBirds.com.

#2 Christopher Taylor photographs birds from the more mundane, but still cute, dark-eyed junco to exotic birds of Hawaii, Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula, and the Galapagos. I especially enjoyed Christopher’s yellow warbler album and his May 2009 Ohio collection. Christopher lives in California. You can find all of Christopher’s photos at Kiwifoto.com.

#3 David Kinneer is a gifted amateur photographer from Virginia who has taken an extensive series of photos of bluebirds. He has some fabulous photos of fledglings, so cute, like my favorite one and many, many fine photos of bluebirds in flight. David seems to be currently using two different gallery sites. You can see his photos at both SmugMug and PBase. You can also read about bluebird battles with a description of David’s work at Sialis.org.

I hope you enjoy the work of these three bird photographers as much as I do. I welcome comments. Please say, “Hi!”
