Salt Lake County Birding (Saturday)

["Colby Neuman" <scythebill83 at hotmail dot com>]

I'm sorry about the late posting.  Tim Avery and I did some birding around 
Salt Lake County on Saturday in hopes of at least getting the Salt Lake Co. 
big day record over 100.  We ended up at 101, but I definitely think 120-130 
is quite possible this time of year with a little planning.  Here's a link 
to the birds we saw for the day...

Highlights included...

Snowy Plover - 1 - to the west of the road going between Saltair and the 
marina at the second turnoff
Peregrine Falcon - 1 chasing a Swainson's Hawk just to the south of the Lee 
Kay Ponds
Black Tern - 1 - at the ponds next to Saltair
Olive-sided Flycatcher - several birds still calling on the Twin Lakes/Lake 
Solitude Trail
White-breasted Nuthatch - a total of three between Twin Lakes and Lake 
Solitude
WHITE-WINGED CROSSBILL - several mixed in with a flock of Red Crossbills at 
the start of the Silver Lake trail
