Highlights from my annual Thanksgiving trip to Utah;
Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge: 2 Rough-legged Hawks, flock of Sandhill Cranes, a few Bonaparte's Gulls, a few Tundra Swans, one Northern Shrike, and one Ring-necked Pheasant.
I-15: a Ferruginous Hawk over a vacant field.
Farmington Bay WMA: 3 more Rough-legged Hawks including one locked in battle with a Northern Harrier.
Boulder, UT: On the Moody Canyon Road off of the Burr Trail a flock of 35 Black Rosy-finches was a big surprise and a life bird for me.
Harris Wash off of Hole-in-the-Rock Road in Escalante, UT: Red-naped Sapsucker, flock of Cedar Waxwings, 2 Great Horned Owls, some Spotted Towhees, American Goldfinches, one Brown Creeper.
Fremont, UT: 2 adult Bald Eagles perched in a tree beside Hwy 72.
Nothing rare this year but it was a fine trip with some sublime scenery.
All the best,
Michelle Brodie
