Paul Gardner (29 Mar 2020) – [New Canyon Rd] - RUFFED GROUSE. I'm always delighted to see one of these birds. I grew up in Pennsylvania where the Ruffed Grouse is the state bird. The bird I saw this morning flushed close to me and flew by in a flash, but it was in the open. Its field marks were distinct. I see the species regularly and have submitted photos previously.

Paul Gardner (25 Jan 2020) – [New Canyon Road] - GOLDEN EAGLE. These Golden Eagles were calling repeatedly as they flew at and after each other. Sometimes they were flying fast and low. Other times they were diving from the sky. This behavior went on for over 30 minutes. I suspect they were a pair bonding.

Paul Gardner (13 Jan 2020) – [Ephraim, UT] - HERMIT THRUSH. I felt this was an unusual sighting. It has been an odd winter. I have lived in the Sanpete Valley for 30 years. This is the first winter I remember in which we have not had any temperatures in town below 0° F. I have seen Great Blue Herons this winter, which is very odd. I have seen Hermit Thrushes in the fall and spring in town, but not in the winter. I made this observation on the campus of Snow College in Ephraim, UT, USA.

Paul Gardner (5 Jan 2020) – [Black Hill WMA] - PINYON JAY. The year of 2019 was a good water year. Many of the trees produced well, at least that's my guess as to why a large flock of Pinyon Jays was in this area. I have seen large flocks in the past in Sanpete County and did not consider this to be an especially unusual sighting, although it was fun.

Turkey Vultures are migrating south now. Groups of them often roost in town where there are large trees to provide them shelter. The carrion attracted them to one local and gave them a feast before they continued their journey.

Paul Gardner (19 Jul 2018) - [Left Fork off Ephraim Canyon] - Ruffed Grouse. I heard these birds calling quietly to one another. It was a hen or two calling little ones. I stood quietly listened. When they couldn't take the stress any more, two adults flushed. I walked closer to where they had been in the vegetation within an aspen grove. Young flushed. When I see Ruffed Grouse they are often in pairs. They are not rare here. American Three-toed Woodpeckers, Williamson's Sapsuckers, Northern Goshawks are rare. I would classify Ruffed Grouse as uncommon.
