I watched this bird harassing some seagulls. At first, I thought it was a hawk. But its flight was not hawk-like and it was very fast. I decided to shoot continuous mode and hope to get at least one image that was clear enough for identification. I was lucky enough to capture a handful of images that were clear enough to see that this is a peregrine falcon. It must have been hoping for some seagull for lunch.

Loree Johnson is a nature photographer and passionate advocate for the preservation and restoration of ecosystems and wildlife habitat. She discovered a love for photography late in life at the age of 50 while living in Yreka, California. The desire to travel and document nature induced her to take an early retirement from a tedious desk job and go on the road. During her travels through the Western U.S. for six years (2014-2020) she collected a wealth of rewarding experiences and unique photographs. She volunteered for several National Wildlife Refuges along the way. Loree experiences profound joy in nature, and believes that all people should have the opportunity to experience it, too.
