Some new images taken in Alaska at Lake Clark National Park along the Cook Inlet in a very remote area only reachable by boat or small aircraft. We photographed Coastal Brown Bears (called Grizzleys in the interior) and Puffins on Puffin Island. Also on Instagram at Image Photo Pro, Larry Moskovitz where I post more frequently. As I stated a few months ago I use Instagram more frequently and please follow me there also.
I have been posting new images since last summer to INSTAGRAM
at IMAGE PHOTO PRO LARRY MOSKOVITZ. I have been posting several times a week with new images and find it easier to maintain than this Blog.
There are well over 100 of my latest images on INSTAGRAM. Also there is a large community of excellent photographers on Instagram and commenting is much easier without a lot of Spam.
Hope to see you there.

Recently taken photos of Burrowing Owl family with young recently out of nest in S. California. One of the juveniles is starting to fly short distances and the female is feeding the young still; but I have not seen the male adult after several visits.
I have to apologize for not posting on this site for a while and have been more active on Instagram @ImagePhotoPro. Please follow me there with some of my best images. I tend to post there at least several times a week with new material, both bird photography, landscapes, and other wildlife.
During this pandemic we have not traveled either domestically or internationally but have had to make do with local birds in my backyard or nearby. I hope all my followers are staying safe in these difficult times and that we can get back to normal before too long. I do have some backyard photos of Hooded Orioles, Warblers, Western Bluebirds, and some Woodpeckers which I will post on this Blog soon.
Some recent photos of sea otters and pups on the central Calif coast taken with the new Sony mirrorless a9II body and G master 100-400 mm lens with 1.4 extender. Also some Elephant Seals at Piedras Blancas south of Big Sur, Cal.
We visited Death Valley just before Thanksgiving and were treated to a dust storm with 40 to 50 mph winds one day. The next day it was calm and the sand dunes were refreshed with no footprints in sight, perfect for photography. Most shots were taken at sunrise or within 2 hours for the best light. Some of these are panoramas with 4 or 5 images fused in Photoshop to produce a high quality image.

We just returned from Pt Reyes National Seashore about an hour north of San Francisco, a large peninsula that extends into the Pacific. It has miles of sandy and cliff lined beaches, forests, grasslands, and wildlife including bobcats, shorebirds, elk, deer, owls, coyotes, hawks, elephant seals, and many species of birds. Of course since I did not bring my long lens, and only a wide angle, we did see 2 bobcats, coyotes, and 3 huge male elk. The bobcats bounded across the road at such speed that I still might not have gotten the shot.
Also please follow me on Instagram @ImagePhotoPro where I have been posting much more frequently, and have well over a hundred of some of my better images of the last few years, all in one place.
New photos from our trip to the Banff and Jasper areas via the Icefields Parkway, a very scenic drive with many mountains and pristine lakes. Also you can now follow me on Instagram at @ImagePhotoPro with more frequent posts and often additional images.

Some new photos of Calif Burrowing Owl chicks in Calif. Although they are not on the Endangered Species List they are in decline in most areas of the West due to loss of habitat. They should be protected as their future is very uncertain. Their preferred habitat is low grassy areas and sandy soil and are dependent on abandoned ground squirrel tunnels or other rodents nests. Warehouse, Commercial construction and housing developments have eliminated much of their habitat.
