[Birdtalk] East Fork Little Bear River

[Jim Lofthouse]

The East Fork of the Little Bear River, was rather birdy today.    I spent most of my time from the reservoir down to the first river bridge.   Right near the bridge is excellent birding. That is where the catbird was.

Ok, this is Cache County, Avon, below the Porcupine Dam, and also the reservoir.  The reservoir and the area around it is private property.  The landowners don't seem to mind allowing access to the lake, or the river below the dam.  The state owns  a section of ground   below the dam about 1/4 mile.  It begins about where the canal crosses the road below the dam, and goes for a mile downstream.    It ends where the first cabin below the dam is located.   When you start seeing the crossbuck fences, you are on state land.    (Good fishin here too)

Here is the list:  Red-winged Blackbird, Robin, Killdeer, Gray Catbird, Red-tailed hawk, Cedar Waxwing, Belted Kingfisher, Bullock's Oriole, Western Kingbird, Spotted Sandpiper, Western Tanager, Yellow Warbler, Golden Eagle, Lazuli Bunting, Mallard, White Pelican, Common Loon, Cliff Swallow, Rough-winged Swallow, Barn Swallow, Starling, Mourning Dove, Broad-tailed Hummingbird, Black-headed Grosbeak, and Magpie.   MIA was the Dipper.
