Hyrum Dam birds



Thought I would share with you all some interesting birds I saw last night, along the Hyrum Dam shore foot path.
I saw many Yellow Warblers, male and female Bullock's Oriole, Black headed Grosbeak, House Wren, Bank Swallows, Western and Clarks Grebes, Swainsons Hawk, American Robin, Starlings (feeding young in the hollow of a tree), American Crow and many Mourning Doves.
What a great place to bird!
 
On Tuesday evening, I was hiking a trail up Blacksmith Fork canyon (east of Hyrum) and came across a Blue Grouse at the first of the trail. On the way back down, I saw a pile of tail feathers where the Grouse was spotted. I suspect it might have been snatched up by something!
