Colby Neuman reports a JAEGER from a new location this morning--over Great 
Salt Lake two to three miles north of the marina near SaltAir in Salt Lake 
County.

Colby is presently on a boat with a group of school kids; one of them asked 
him "What's that dark gull out there?" Colby turned to see a jaeger chasing 
a California Gull. He believes that the jaeger is either a PARASITIC or a 
LONG-TAILED based on size comparisons with the gull.

Tim Avery is headed to the marina to watch for the bird along the south 
shore. If you'd like to join Tim, I think the marina is accessible from I-80 
exit 104.

Who says you can't take a pelagic birding cruise in Utah?!?
