My favorite photo - a newly fledged Bald Eagle has a feisty American Kestrel take a ride for a second, taken at the river behind the house.
Pileated Woodpecker pair in the front yard. New photos nearly every day on our Blog page!

Things are always hopping at the Raptors of the Rockies organization. We're taking care of the birds and maintaining their enclosures, we're conducting raptor programs at local schools and organizations across Western Montana, art is flying out of the studio, we're taking photos and shooting video, we're out in the field birding and/or doing research, and much, much more. To help you keep up with the flurry of activities happening at Raptors of the Rockies, we're blogging on a more-or-less daily basis and our most recent posts are listed below. Enjoy!

Winterizing!Posted: Sun, 11 Oct 2026 A photo of Mose at the slough just before the weather turned, currently snowing. Sort of. Took down the eagle building shade cloth, wound up the hoses, and clear shower curtains for windbreaks on windows facing west and north. Plus Sonora the Aplomado Falcon has one of her two red-bulb lamps going.
And THANKS everyone for a wonderful art opening at Travelers' Rest yesterday! Lots and lots of friends and Portia the Barred Owl quietly perched by the big winter landscape photo of Lewis and Clark-Land for two hours!
