Very nice! I really like Malheur NWR and have some great shots from there. Your Female Northern Harrier especially, is outstanding!
In case you don't know, there is a Sage Grouse Lek about twelve miles west of the NWR.

Thanks tcthome. We are lucky to have such variety from the coast to mountains to desert with some important flyways

Thanks retired. We wanted to find the lek, but the sage burned a few years ago and no one knew where the leks were now. We asked at the field station and at the visitor center. The one guy who may know was out of town.

Thank you very much Curmudgeon. There are a few more on my website. They were particularly active near Frenchglen one evening. The light was great and there were a couple pair gathering nesting material and hunting

My wife and I took a two week camping birding trip to Eastern Oregon. From Ashland we stopped in Summer Lake, Malheur NWR, the Zumwalt Prairie, returning through Fort Rock, Cabin Lake and back to Summer Lake. We started on April 15, a little early for returning warblers and shorebirds in this part of the world though there were several migrants here and there. We did see nesting raptors, lots of ducks, and a goodly collection of passerines. I've posted pictures to three collections at mrtk.smugmug.com if you would like to see some of the photographically cooperative birds at these locations. Not all are what you would call artistic, but they reflect a little of what's around at the end of April. Here's a sample:

What an wonderful set, MRTKarlin! This White-faced ibis’ shot is absolutely incredible, while all others are also great!
Nice work!
