[Birdnet] Western Gull, Lapland Longspur, Trumpeter Swan

[Joel and Kathy Beyer]

An adult Western Gull and Trumpeter Swan were at Farmington Bay WMA this
afternoon,  The Western Gull was on the west dike at the first bridge,
along with over 100 Herring Gulls and 18 Bald Eagles.  The gulls were
busy finding fish in the small section of open water, and the eagles were
just as busy taking the fish away.  Quite entertaining!  The Trumpeter
Swan was in the southwest pond at the end of the west dike road, hanging
out with pintails and shovelers.

At mile marker 2 on the Antelope Island Causeway, a Lapland Longspur was
found in a flock of 30 Horned Larks.  Also, 7 Long-tailed Ducks (3 male,
4 female) were at the second bridge.

And this morning, a mixed flock of Black and Gray-crowned Rosy Finches
were seen at the Ben Hame house at Alta (on the Alta Bypass Road).
