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. 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.

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!

"New" Printing Press
Posted: Thu, 12 Jun 2025

Thanks Cindy Knutsen for the big printing press, now installed upstairs and my trial run of a Rough-legged Hawk drypoint etching.  Donated by Cindy and bought some parts, now ready to rock and roll, 19 inches across instead of the little one for 30 years, 12 inches!

Bridge
Posted: Fri, 06 Jun 2025

Almost every year Tom's little bridge over the slough has started floating, held tight with ropes and not washing away. Well, thank you Pat Johnson for installing more cinder blocks to keep it above the water. This one with the dogs, just inches from floating. Thanks Pat and a river walk every day.

Not this! But a big drypoint of a female hawk on a fence post, what fun! Then on to the new printing press up over the garage. First one of this size for me. I am excited.
