Hyrum Dam

["Jim & Beanie" <jbloft at netzero dot net>]

We stopped at the Hyrum Dam for a while yesterday. Quite a few birds were present, but they were mostly far enough off to need the scope to get a good look at them. There was White Pelican, California Gull, Franklin's Gull, Eared Grebe, Western Grebe, White faced Ibis, Killdeer, Avocet, Great Blue Heron, Coot, Yellow-rumped fWarbler, Merlin, Snowy Egret, Caspian Tern, Forster's Tern, and Shoveler. There were also some nondescript ducks that we couldn't identify.   Here is a picture:
