Bird Photography Index - Photography by Kirk M. Rogers
I’ve been gearing up for ‘earthbound’ photography for a few years and started imaging birds with the advent of summer in 2006. This endeavor became a bit more ambitious
with the addition of a Canon 500mm f/4L image stabilized lens in July of that year. As I was developing a significant database of images with no proper display venue, I decided to add this
section to my website. For details of my 'earthbound' imaging system please refer to my article: My Canon Photographic System.

Most Recent Revisons:

April 14, 2008
Added several shorebirds from Tybee Island in Georgia including the Dunlin, Purple Sandpiper & Western Sandpiper. A common bird I never bothered to photograph until now while in breeding plummage and added is the European Starling.

April 5, 2008
Added ten species from March/April field trips in Georgia and Florida including: American Avocet; Horned Grebe; Western Kingbird; Swallow-tailed Kite; Sora; Bachman's Sparrow; Black-necked Stilt; Forster's Tern; Prothonotary Warbler and the Red-cockaded Woodpecker - I'd call this trip a success.

Added the Purple Martin from an imaging session on Skidaway Island in Georgia.
