Kristin Purdy (23 May 2020) – [Ogden Bay WMA—North Parking Lot (7500 W)] – AMERICAN BITTERN. One continuing since 3/19 and audible from the same place now for the 5th time. Sang pumping sequences continuously. The second one on the dirt road between footbridges over the branches of the Weber River. Also seen in flight and landing in the marsh ~100 yards west of the road and sang a pumping song sequence. Generally brown with spear-like bill pointed up, long neck and legs, brown and white streaked throat, two-tone brown and blackish dorsal surface of wing. The only reason I'm offering these disastrous pics is to prove I tried.

Kristin Purdy (20 May 2020) – [Ogden Bay WMA—No Parking Lot (7500 W)] – BLACK TERN. Much smaller than the many Forster's and same-size Sterna sp. terns (no Caspians) also roosting at the pond and flying over it. Black head and body; gray wings; white vent highly visible. Distant and SW of the bridge over the Middle Fork of the Weber; easiest to pick out with a scope when the bird was flying with the white terns.

Kent Heileson (26 April 2020) – [Ogden Bay WMA—North Parking Lot (7500 W)] - FERRUGINOUS HAWK. Saw all three on 3 consecutive power poles and spent about 20 minutes considering the differences between them and the rough legged hawk. We got good pictures and finally decided they were ferruginous because of the yellow above the beak.

Kristin Purdy (20 April 2020) – [North Fort County Park] - NORTHERN GOSHAWK. Large with tapered wing in profile and long, sturdy tail. All-pale underneath. Very fast in sky-dancing display flight. One bird "performing" for the other with both sky-dancing and exaggerated or slow-flapping displays. Slow flapping included circling with wing stroke extended high and ending deep; flapping with each circle was about half the circle rather than the brief flap-flap-flap gliiiiide of COHA/SSHA. Over the foothills west of the main road at the north end of the park, and about above the Cutler Springs/Ridge trailhead.

Kristin Purdy (29 Mar 2020) – [Snowbasin Ski Resort] - EVENING GROSBEAK. Continuing. Heard them calling through the open window when I drove by; had to don snowshoes and ascend the slope to find them. Very chatty during the entire observation with "Tew" calls and trilling. Curiously, only two males observed in the flock. Exact count of birds I could see feeding in maple; then they flushed and the number may have been double.
    – Also seen: PINE GROSBEAK. With the grosbeaks. Gray but backlit; flew to the top of a spruce spire and called musically. Later, heard one calling a second time but I didn't see it.

Kristin Purdy (18 Mar 2020) – [Ogden Bay WMA—North Parking Lot] – PECTORAL SANDPIPER. Together in the west pond with Killdeer. Smaller than the nearby Killdeer, but not as small as tiny Least Sandpipers also present. Bills somewhat droopy. Brownish and white. Brown upper breasts with warm tones clearly demarcated from white bellies. Wingtips about as long as tails. Observed at about 7:30, so light was bad and getting worse.
      – Also seen: SHORT-EARED OWL. Seen together by scanning ESE from the parking lot; later seen in flight coming together briefly. Presumed courtship flight of male which included two wing-claps and shallow stoops. At dusk one flew over 7500W as I was arriving back at the parking lot on foot just before leaving.

White face, blue crest, and black "necklace". Slightly smaller than the Steller's Jays it was hanging out with. Noisy "jay" calls heard from two individuals. One bird was observed foraging on the ground, in the snow, and appeared to be caching away its findings in the bark of the trees. Neither bird came out into the open, and when moving from place to place, stayed high in the tree cover.

     – [West Weber—North 8300 W] - BRONZED COWBIRD. Dumb luck bird. Pulled up to feedlot to look for YHBL and BHCO that had been reported, first blackbird I put eyes on with the binos was a female, but had glowing red eyes, 3 posts in on the left sitting in the sunlight. Overall about the same size and color of a female BRBL, but had a supercilium and palish throat. Bill was long like BRBL(unlike BHCO) but stouter. If it hadn't had been a sunny day, the eye color would not have popped, and I could have easily passed it off as a BRBL female. Tanish breast, head and back, blackish tail and wings. Supercilium and palish throat, long stoutish bill, glowing red eyes distinctive and unmistakable. Shortly after locating, flock flushed and I was unable to relocate.

Kristin Purdy (31 Oct 2019) – [Pineview Reservoir—Huntsville Peninsula] - GREATER SCAUP. Hen. Preened and swam actively during 30-min or so of observation, showing only lower, rounded crown lacking tall and skinny look of the heads of her Lesser Scaup hen companions; also, she never showed a slight point at the rear of the crown. This bird may be continuing since Oct 28 when I observed a large flock of 90 Lesser Scaup and two scaup sp. hens that may have been Greaters due to the consistent shape and proportion of their crowns.

Four magpies that clearly had the hawk in view failed to pursue it as they do the other accipiters. I guess they know!

Medium length decurved bills, white supercilia, gray crowns and generally gray bodies although the bird not depicted in the photos was more heavily patterned and appeared to be a juvenile.

Mike Hearell (9 Aug 2019) – [North Fork County Park] – FLAMMULATED OWL. 2nd juvenile (photo) fledged ~5am earlier in the day. It spent the day in nearly the same spot as the first fledgling two days earlier. At dusk the second fledgling made its way to where the first fledgling has been for the the last two nights, nearly 40’ away from the nest cavity. Unlike previous nights when the adults would bring the juveniles food, this time they would get close and then call for them to come get the food. — The fledglings roost in low cover a foot or two off the ground during the day, but quickly climb up trees to around 7-9’ off the ground once the sun goes down.

Mike Hearell (6 May 2018) - [Ogden Bay WMA] - Sanderling. Seen on a mudflat mixed in with WIPH and small peep species for size comparison. Size was right about half way between peeps and Wilson’s Phalaropes. Rusty head and back were clearly seen on 2 of the 3 individuals, third was slightly delayed in plumage. Undertail, belly, and chest appeared to be clean white, but tough to tell at the distance. Bill was short. Although seen at distance (>200 yards) the early morning lighting was perfect.

Kristin Purdy (30 Apr 2018) - [Ogden Bay WMA] - Semipalmated Plover. Flew in and landed in the lagoons and 30-40 yards west of the clump of tamarisk at the duck hunter's parking lot.

White below, brown above, with black and white accents on the head and neck. One complete black collar; one complete white collar. Very short bill orange at base, black at tip; orange legs.

In the clump of tamarisk at the duck hunter's parking lot. Bird left before I took cover from the wind at that spot to study the shorebirds to the west; bird returned without realizing I was there and foraged as close as 10 feet.

Kristin Purdy (13 Mar 2018) - [Pineview Reservoir] - Cackling Goose. Saw these guys in the scope from a serious (3/4 mile) distance--the Middle Inlet--but they were small enough in comparison to CANG also present that I pulled into the Spring Creek parking lot on the way around the reservoir to confirm they were Cacklers and to phone-scope them from a lot closer (but not close, still about .2 mile).

Michael Behrens (12 Mar 2018) - [Bonneville Shoreline Trail] - Canyon Wren. Heard the distinct song of the canyon wren coming from the cliffs above the Nature Center North Trailhead both beginning my hike and as I finished.

Kristin Purdy (2 Feb 2018) - [Ogden Bay WMA] - Mew Gull. Possibly the same bird reported by Mike Hearell on 1/12/2018, except it's injured now. In comparison to nearby RBGUs, slightly smaller; slightly darker mantle; thinner, yellow bill with barely discernible mark on lower mandible; dirtier, blurry streaking on head. Dark eye. Noticeable scapular crescents and larger, defined tertial crescents. Bird persistently kept its left leg raised and limped heavily when trying to walk. In the waterfowl rest area.

Mike Hearell (21 Jan 2018) - [Harold Crane WMA] - McCown's Longspur. Continuing. All 3 were female types. The male seen earlier in the day was not seen so, there are at least 4 individuals present. The flocks were sticking to the taller vegetation today which made getting a photo a challenge and I apparently not up to the task.
