I wanted to thank everyone who sent me places to go
for my trip to SLC and Yellowstone.
I especially want to thank Bill Fenimore for a great day of birding despite
rain (2.9 inches), snow (8 inches), and stiff winds (50-65 mph) to help tally 97 species and 13 life birds over 15
hours (Wednesday, June 6th). With out his expert guidence this would have been a lost day. My SLC/Utah
list finished at 123 species and a trip total of 148 species. The trip included
Wyoming (Yellowstone), Montana, and Idaho and tallied 46 life birds. Bill was
kind enough to help add a few misses the evening before I left which added 3
more life birds. I cannot say enough about how great a birder and guide he is.
If you have not already done so you should go birding with him, I am looking
forward to next May for some more birding with him in Utah.?Below is my
Utah list copied from eBird. Birding Dates where June 5,6,11,12 though only the
6th was a full day.
