It flew to the south and landed vertically on a fence post. Barn Swallows harassed it. Very clear views with naked eye and via binoculars.

Harrison Jones (28 July 2019) – [Mill Creek Canyon—Bowman Fork Trail] – NORTHERN GOSHAWK. Seen from above in flight over subalpine meadows near open pine forest at ~9800 feet. A LARGE Accipiter raptor (initially mistaken for an eagle) with Buteo-like proportions, seen well for 4 or 5 seconds. In addition to large body size, the primary 'fingers' were visible in flight, and the wings were not as rounded as other Accipiter species. The bird was flying quickly and in a straight line relatively close to the ground (perhaps at prey?), no soaring behavior. Appeared to be a juvenile bird, with stronger white eyebrow and lighter face than juvenile Cooper's Hawk. Gray and black barred tail and streaked underparts visible.

Neil Paprocki (26 Sep 2018) - [7200 W, Salt Lake City, UT] - PALM WARBLER. I was watching a large mixed-flock of mostly YRWAs when I heard an unusual chip from behind (east) me. I turned around to watch a small warbler fly in and land on a Tamarisk to my west. As soon as the bird landed it pumped its tail several times and I knew I had a Palm Warbler. The bird foraged in the Tamarisk in front of me for less than a minute before taking off and flying west and out of view. Others relocated the bird later near my initial sighting location: 40.7630, -112.0651. Along side canal (Brighton Drain) running west off of 7200 W; not signed as private. Record submitted to the UBRC. 4th county record for Salt Lake

Immature, first heard unusual high "pink" calls, brief but good looks at a warbler that looked much like a NAWA, gray head with eye-ring, bright yellow throat and breast, but had 2 bold wing bars on each wing. No other warbler has that combination of field marks. No photos.

Cameron Cox ( 5 Aug 2018) - [Frontage Rd between 5600W & 7200W] - Glossy Ibis. An adult still primarily in Alt but beginning the molt to Basic. Watched in good light for at least 10 minutes in the scope. Paid careful attention to eye color at a variety of angles and was alway dark. Facial skin also dark except for the thin pale blue border. Also paid close attention to the pale border and while it wasn't as thick or as noticeable as during high breeding aspect, it ran from the eye, looped over the bill and back to the eye on the top and from the eye to the base of the bill on the bottom. It did not loop around behind the eye and did not show any pink or purple discoloration anywhere along its length. The legs where very dark, darker than any other adult ibis at this location without a hint of pink anywhere. The crown and part of the nape where Basic feathers and where lightly streaked pale, not as extensively as most WFIB. I could see no indications that this bird was a hybrid.

Fai Eva (24 2018) - [Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest, Sandy, UT] - CANADA JAY (Rocky Mts.). Yes we saw them on the top of the snow bird ski resort. On the very top of the tram line. They are pale grey almost white belly. The wings are definitely pale grey. There is a tint of beige brown color.. There is a distinct black eye streak mark. Unfortunately I am not able to take pictures. There were three of them flying from one pine tree to another, making quite a lot of noise. I don’t think they are snow bunting because the wings are not black. There is a slight chance they are McKay's bunting. But there is a distinct black eye streak. Note that the back of the head is not black. The only thing clearly black is the eye streak.

Possibly more. I could hear them calling in scree fields on my way down from Devil's Castle. I tried to get closer to get a look/pic, when they mobbed a Peregrine all the way up towards the top of Sugarloaf. Two came back down during my descent.

Jennifer Bridgeman (14 Jun 2018) - [Wakara Way, SLC] - Ash-throated Flycatcher. Observed at a distance of 10 feet atop a mahogany tree with a plant community of scrub oak, sage brush, mountain mahogany, and other bushy plants. Bird had a pale yellow belly, white throat, long rufous tail (with black on the tips), and short wings. Made many distinctive rough, high-pitched calls of two syllable phrases, which were repeated. I am very confident in this ID because I was able to get so close to the bird, and its calls matched recordings that I looked up for Ash-throated flycatchers in order to verify the species.

May 2018

Kenny Frisch  (31 May 2018) - [Decker Lake] - Common Grackle. Continuing. Smaller than nearby Great-tailed Grackles with smaller bill and tail as well. Larger and bulkier than Brewer's Blackbird with a more keel shaped tail. Gave typical 'Jeer" call.

Pomera Fronce  (31 May 2018) - [Affleck Park - trailhead eastside of SR 65] - Red-eyed Vireo. Seen at five feet above eye level in a leafed out tree, but with a clear view of the bird. Greenish-yellow back, clean light breast with pale yellow showing at the shoulders and down the flanks. Long thick bill. Strong face pattern, gray crown with bold white eyebrow. The eye looked black because the bird was in the shade. We watched the vireo for about three minutes as it wrestled with a beetle longer that its bill. The bird had the beetle pinned to a branch and stabbed at it several times before snatching it up, "tossing" it around a bit and then swallowing it pretty much whole.

Matthew Pendleton (14 May 2018) - [Lee Kay Ponds] - Bobolink. I heard a male singing and I was very surprised but I have heard them a lot. I had a brief view after a lot of searching the area.
