  • Hundreds of Vaux's swifts (Chaetura vauxi) circle then dive into the chimney at the Wagner Center in Monroe, Washington, during their fall migration.

As many as 26,000 Vaux's swifts have perched in the Monroe chimney at a time.

  • A northern elephant seal (Mirounga angustirostris) flips sand onto her back on the beach at the Piedras Blancas Elephant Seal Rookery near San Simeon, California. Elephant seals typically spend 9 months at sea, coming to shore only to give birth and mate, and researchers believe flipping sand onto their backs may help regulate their body temperatures while on shore. Elephant seals are named for the long snouts that male seals develop. The Piedras Blancas Elephant Seal Rookery is part of the Piedras Blancas State Marine Reserve and Marine Conservation Area, managed by California.

  • A long exposure captures the motion of the spray erupting from the Old Faithful at dawn in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. When Old Faithful erupts, it can launch as much as 8,400 gallons (32,000 liters) of boiling water as high as 185 feet (56 meters), although the average eruption height is 145 feet (44 meters). The time between eruptions is growing longer on average, possibly because earthquakes have affected underground water levels. The current interval is either 65 or 91 minutes depending on attributes of the prior eruption.

  • A juvenile bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) exercises its wings by tightly grabbing a branch with its talons and flapping its wings. The fledgling's motion is blurred by a long exposure.

  • With just a narrow crack in the ceiling of Upper Antelope Canyon near Page, Arizona, little sunlight reaches the floor by mid-afternoon. Violent flash floods sculpt the sandstone, leaving undulating, layered walls that appear violet or purple in the very faint indirect afternoon light. The Navajo people call Antelope Canyon Tsé bighánílíní dóó Hazdistazí, which means "the place where water runs through rocks." The light in the canyon was so dim at the time that this image was captured that it required a more than one-minute exposure to reveal the detail of the canyon walls.
