Dec 2012
Jeff Cooper (4 Dec 2012) - Eric Peterson and I covered
416 miles over a 13-hour period last Saturday in an effort to see some Rocky
Mountain Bighorn Sheep north of Green River and to enjoy some birding in Emery
and Carbon Counties. ...A highlight for me was seeing several individuals of my
favorite hawk species, Buteo Regalis or Ferruginous Hawk, along Hwy 6 in
both Emery and Carbon County
Jun 2011
Bryant Olsen (2 Jun 2011) - On Monday(05-30-11)
thru Wednesday, I headed out to the San Rafael Swell in eastern Utah, and saw 2
INDIGO BUNTINGS near Black Dragon Canyon. Saw a Kingbird, either a Western
or Cassin's. Also lots of other cool desert birds around,my favorite of which
were the BLUE GROSBEAKS and YELLOW-BREASTED CHATS. Also lots of
NORTHERN MOCKINGBIRDS that were going insane, singing day and night. Still
lots of neo-tropical migrants moving through the desert oasis.
Sep 2010
Oliver Hansen (2 Sep 2010) - I backpacked from Fuller Bottom to the
San Rafael Bridge last Friday through Sunday this past weekend. Beautiful
weather! Birds were few and far between. Humans were even more scarce (we ran
into 2 people in 3 days). Did see quite a few gnat-catchers, warblers, swallows,
swifts, and wrens. Also a few crows (ravens maybe...they were kind of high up)
mobbing a golden eagle which didn't seem to be too bothered. There was a swallow
colony on one of the cliff faces that was pretty neat to see. It was a great
weekend. Hope to get back down to Emery County in the future.
May 2010
Kris Purdy (22 May 2010) - I saw a report of a
CRESTED CARACARA in Huntington, Emery County, last weekend, which is
worthy of consideration. The observer is Clint Peterson of
Salt Lake City.
Nov 2009
Rick Fridell (4 Nov 2009) - Today (11/4/09) I received an email from some
Bishop, CA birders who recently spent a week or so camping in the San Rafael
Swell. On October 20, 2009, they photographed a Thick-billed Kingbird in
Upper Calf Canyon, accessed from the Buckhorn Wash Road above the San Rafael
Bridge, approximately 20 miles north of I-70, and west of Green River, Emery
County, Utah. They sent some photos and I hope to work with them to get this
significant sighting published in North American Birds and submitted to the
Utah Bird Records Committee.
May 2009
Justin DeCaro (18 May 2009) - Kelle Reynolds (Forest Biologist)
and myself, Justin DeCaro (Wildlife Technician) from the US Forest Service on
the Manti-LaSal National Forest were out doing migratory bird surveys this
morning. We heard what we belived to be the song of the Chesnut-sided warbler.
A very distinctive...Plea Plea Plea Please to Meet You! We were unable to get a
visual on the bird. Kelle is originally from Chicago, and did her Master's work
in the upper woodlands of Michigan. She was very familiar with this bird, and
immediately recognized that she had heard the call somewhere before. We were
conducting our survey near Joes Valley Reservior in Emery County, Utah closeby
the Reeder Trail.
Jun 2007
Pat Jividen (2 Jun 2007) - Steve Carr and I saw a Whimbrel at
Huntington state park. At the end of the parking lot, the boat ramp (being 12
the bird was at two) On the far side of the lake.
Jun 2005
David Wheeler (16 June 2005) - I stopped off in Green River last Sunday...and
found the little park in town (the one with the missile) all aflutter with
Great-tailed grackles and Eurasian collared-doves (of which there were AT
LEAST four but probably considerably more--it was hard to tell with them being
so active, flying in and out of the surrounding neighborhoods and hiding in
trees).
Apr 2005
Joel and Kathy Beyer (17 April 2005) - Lots of nice birds in southeastern
Utah this weekend, including: Green River State Park - a male
Yellow-shafted Flicker and a Green Heron...
Jun 2004
Dan Cooper (24 June 2004) - ...I found a singing White-eyed Vireo in
Green River, UT on 24 June. ...2 mi. north of town along "Long St.", just after
dog-leg turn in road, past parked white pick-up and red bulldozer on right. In
riparian scrub right where irrigation canal (drain?) crosses rd.
Feb 2004
Merrill Webb (7 Feb 2004) - Best bird in that general area was a Eurasian
Collared Dove in almost the middle of downtown Huntington. Makes about seven
Utah counties that bird has been observed in now, I think.
May 2003
Merrill Webb - Thursday May 29, I observed a
Chestnut-sided Warbler for about a half hour from 8:15 am to 8:45 am. There
was one adult male bird in a narrowleaf poplar grove along the Muddy River about
2 miles west of the Moore Junction in Emery County. Moore Junction is 5 miles
north of Emery on Highway 10. If you want to see the chesnut-sided
warbler, you MUST GET PERMISSION FIRST!!! To get permission to get on the ranch,
call Jim Fauver 435-749-0508
April 2000
A flock of over 250 FRANKLIN'S GULLS provided an impressive sighting
at Huntington Reservoir on Sunday, 04/23 (J&RT).
