Wildside Photography by CJM

Hello and welcome to my wildlife website. I've always wanted to photograph wildlife as I was growing up, but never took the time until the winter of 2010. After 2 months of searching to prove the rumors I heard about Bald Eagles along the Fox River in the Algonquin area were true, I found one and photographed my first Bald Eagle in the wild at Buffalo Park in Algonquin, IL. Since then I've been on hot pursuit of all things furry and feathered close to home. My main goal is to photograph birds in flight, but will take anything I can get while out in the field. My favorites are Osprey, Bald Eagles, Hawks, Owls, and Wolves.  I've come close finding coyotes, but no wolves yet.  Thank you for taking the time to view my website and keep checking back since I am adding images to my collection all the time. I hope you enjoy my images as much as I had capturing them.
