Nature Trail Dedication

Farmington Bay just dedicated phase II of the Great Salt Lake Nature Center, the new Nature Trail and it is a beauty. I attended the dedication this morning and here are a few pictures of the people that made it happen, the trail and the birds...

How common are Eastern Kingbirds in the Salt Lake area? The boardwalk looks good.
