Hi Keith,

I've seen them on occasion, usually in the fall/winter, but I think 
I've seen them in all seasons. Most (all?) of my records are for 
northern Utah. While I was working at Tracy Aviary, we had one that was 
brought in for rehab that had been misidentified as a Ferruginous Hawk. 
The most remarkable sighting I can recall was of three birds seen 
together on the north side of Portage, near the Idaho border, I believe 
in December 1999.

It seems that they show up here from time to time - always a great bird 
to see.
