Neil Paprocki (14 Jan 2017) - [Powder Mountain Ski

Mike Fish (13 Jan 2017) - [Petersboro, UT] - Gray
Partridge. The partridge flew across the highway directly in front of my
car. I saw the birds land on the hillside west of the road. I pulled off on the
7200 W exit and turned around to see if I could relocate the birds. As I got
back to their location, I saw the grays running down into the deep ditch at the
side of the road. The hillside and ditch where the partridge flew to is covered
with sunflower stocks which I am assuming attracted them.

Mike Fish (6 Jan 2017) - [Logan, UT] - Barn Owl.
The Barn owl flew directly in front of my car and was lit up by my headlights as
well as street lights in the area. I saw the owl before it crossed in front of
me and got very good views for easy identification. The owl was flying from the
area of the Providence theaters and headed towards the small golf park to the
east.
Zachary Loman (5 Jan 2017) - [Hyrum, UT] - Vesper
Sparrow. Showed up near the feeder today. Haven't seen it here before. It
was chased off by the towhee, which also showed up this morning. Presumably all

pale malar, moderate fork in the the tail white tail edges.

Will Britton (13 Jan 20167) - [Latigo Wind Farm] - Brown-capped
Rosy-Finch. No distinct cap. Possibly more of this flock was Brown-capped
but I am only basing this on the birds I photographed on this date. On 1/15/17 I
got better looks and photos of this flock (seemingly it grew to ~70 birds or my
1/13 count was off) that I believe confirms this ID.

Flycatcher, about 7-8 inches long with an all gray head and body, pale rufous
belly and square black tail. Flycatching off a boadwalk leading to open water
from the warm spring. Watched it for a couple of minutes. Amazed that it can
survive in this cold weather, but maybe where the warm water is feeding into the
lake provides enough warmth to keep it alive.

Sapsucker. Sapsucker working a pine tree about forty feet up on the trunk of
the tree. Poor light, but still enough to see the red forehead and red throat
with just a smidgeon of red on the nape. Back was characterized by having
cream-colored white bars in two rows. This bird lacked the upper white wing
coverts, Watched it for 5-10 minutes with 8.5x binoculars. It also had a white
stripe from bill to belly and it was about 8-9 inches long. It was definitely a
male because of extensive red on throat.

I ruled out Bewick because there was no eyeline. It was not bobbing like a rock
wren. The overall coloring was paler than the other wrens seen in the park
(rock, canyon, Bewicks, and winter). Too light to be a Pacific Wren. Also the
bird was low in a tree near enough to see well. It then floated down into a
shrub nearby. There were no rocks nearby which would have made me think Rock
Wren. This is the behavior commonly seen in the house wrens in Zion National
park. I did not hear any vocalization.
