| Bonapart's and California Gulls |
Frank Clawson and I took a trip out to Antelope Island Thursday one of my favorite places on earth. We had a wonderful time and saw some good birds though we missed the target bird, the Varied Thrush. For a couple of years I have gone out to Antelope Island hoping to see a Varied thrush. They have been reported there for several years. Last time I went in early September I did get the Northern Water Thrush finally but no picture.
Here is a list of birds and other wildlife seen on yesterday's trip...
Least Sandpiper
Killdeer
California Gull
Ring-billed Gull
Bonapart's Gull
Tundra Swan
Eared Grebe
Loggerhead Shrike
Bewick's Wren
Black-billed Magpie
Red-winged Blackbird
Red-tailed Hawk
American Kestrel
European Starling
Common Yellowthroat
Dark-eyed Junco
Hermit Thrush
Great Horned Owl
Other Wildlife...
Bison
Pronghorn
Mule Deer
Coyote
Here are some pictures.

Great photos.
fantastic shot of the shrike in flight. I did a painting of a shrike, it was the first I have seen and hope to see more in the future as they are fascinating. The image is on my art blog.
