[Birdtalk] Cache Valley: Pelicans, Avocet, Greater White-fronted Goose

[Buck Russell]

I went out birding around Cache Valley today and saw several year birds and one lifer.  Just north of the Benson Ox-bow at the first westbound road there was a flock of about 200 Tundra Swans, numerous Canada Geese, Northern Pintails, Mallards, and one Greater White-fronted Goose.  At the Ox-bow there were about 30+ American White Pelicans, Common Mergansers, Bald Eagle, Canada Geese, and one American Avocet in summer plumage.  At the mitigation pond west of the Logan Landfill were Greater and Lesser Scaups, Herring Gull, Ring-billed Gull, California Gulls, Buffleheads, Canvasback Duck, Ring-necked Duck, Redhead Duck, and Common Goldeneye.    Beautiful weather, great birds, life is good.
