[TopOfUtah] Hyrum Reservoir - Red-breasted Merganser

[Buck Russell]

I visited Hyrum Reservoir this weekend and saw many of the same birds that Connie McManus reported in her email.  There were also three Red-breasted Mergansers and some Common Loons.  I saw the Bald Eagle that Connie reported.  It was flying in a fairly small, tight circle, dive bombing a duck.  I couldn't get an ID on the duck as it kept submerging to escape the eagle.  After a few minutes the eagle was chased off by a flock of gulls.  I also saw one of the Prairie Falcons that Kristin Purdy reported in the southwest area in Cache Valley (wasn't able to relocate the Northern Shrike).
Thanks.
Buck Russell
