Chares Kahr (26 May 2017) - [Alton, UT] - Greater Sage-Grouse.
These Grouse were seen in an area being monitored by biologists. There are open
pit coal mines in the area and some of the Grouse have GPS sensors attached to
them. Although these grouse are outside their typical range, they have been seen
here for a number of years. Our group of four were driving through Sagebrush
area when the grouse were seen standing in the field next to the road. When we
got closer the 10 birds flushed and flew off. One picture is of a bird in
flight. Following the flight with our binoculars we determined where they landed
and walked across the sagebrush for 1/4 mile. Getting closer we got a couple
more pictures as the grouse started to walk over a hillside. Unfortunately none
of the pictures have very good quality but it was clear viewing thru binoculars
and a spotting scope that they were Greater Sage Grouse. The white breast can be
seen contrasting with the black bib.

while I observed him. Very dark,black plumage with the gray cap and rosy
coloration on the wings. This bird was with a flock of about 10 other
Rosy-finches, who were not as obliging. They quickly moved off the road and down
out of sight.

on the lake about 20 yards away, then later seen in flight overhead. I have lots
of experience with DCCO and some experience with NECO in the Southwest, but
consider this a difficult ID in many cases. This bird had dark lores, a pointed
angle to the rear end of the gular skin and a very long tail and rather skinny
neck seen in flight. There was only faint white feathering bordering the gular
pouch. I took a number of photos in flight and on the water, although the
lighting just after sunrise on a cloudy day was not ideal. My best photos are
below:

Chris Babcock (30 Jul 2014) - I just spent a few days
in Kodachrome Basin State Park in SW Utah. Posted on a birder site that I belong
to on Facebook and someone from Utah just told me that my siting was unusual and
suggested I send an email here. We were camped in Kodachrome Basin July 19 -
21st (site #8 if anyone cares). Black-throated Gray Warblers were very
present and easily identifiable. Absolutely no doubt about the identification. I
saw a minimum of 5 birds at one time though I’m pretty sure there were more
based on the calls (maybe up to 10 total). They were busy in the trees morning
and dusk - moving fairly constantly, but many good looks. Calls were as
described in the guide books. Also present were Ash-Throated Flycatchers,
Pinyon Jays (out the wazoo), Ravens, Violet-Green Swallows, Chipping
Sparrows, Broad-tailed Hummingbirds, Black-chinned Hummingbirds and a
Rufous Hummingbird. I saw what I think was a Gnatcatcher but didn’t get a
good enough look to be certain. Several of the Pinyon Jays were young - still
begging and being obnoxiously noisy at 5am. :)
Sep 2011
Colby Newman (27 Sep 2013) - Just a quick note, I was
down in the Bullfrog/Hite area around Lake Powell the past couple of days.
Birding was not the primary focus, but I was able to check the Bullfrog Marina
for birds with the main highlight being a juvenile Sabine's Gull near the
boat launch and several terns (two of which were Forster's Terns)
yesterday.
Jun 2012
Joel Beyer (26 Jun 2012) - We saw a
Cassin's Kingbird this morning in Kodachrome State Park (Kane County).
Apr 2011
Cheri (22 April 2011)
- 12 Black-necked Stilts
in small pond just N. of Mount Carmel Junction on East side of Hwy 89.
Cheri (22 April 2011) - Black-throated Grey Warbler.
It came within 6 ft of me. Was
curious about that "pishing" sound. Ruby-crowned Kinglets as well and
Black chinned and Broad-tailed Hummers. Cassin's Finches here
for a few weeks now. Robins nesting. Chipping Sparrows. Spring is great!
Mar 2011
Cheri (28 Mar 2011) - Cinnamon Teal. A
beautiful pr. here on a shallow pond/marshy area. Lydia's Canyon, Kane Co.

Cheri M (20 Nov 2010) - Have been enjoying 2 Red
breasted Nuthatches here in Kane County. Frequenting the suet feeders and
birdbaths the last few days. Prior to that they have been seen and heard in our
wood. Northern Pygmy Owl here too.

Cheri (27 June 2010) - Wow! I read this AM about
the Rufous Hummingbird being around the state and I just heard and then
saw one here.
May 2010
Cheri "blujeans" (1 May 2010) - Came home today and
had a M Bullocks on my suet mixture. Interesting. It is slightly sweet so
maybe that's the attraction. Or maybe this is typical of the
Bullocks Oriole? I'm from Ohio and never had one before...
Apr 2010
Cheri (9 April 2910) - Broad-tailed hummer. Right
on time! Sweet! Just this sec it was here at the window 2 ft from me.
Mar 2010
Cheri Medlin (9 March 2010) - Withstood the elements and saw a few
ducks on a newly thawed sewage pond off of 89 near the
Mt Carmel Junction. ... Saw
Bufflehead,
Ruddy Duck and
Common Goldeneye pairs. Several Ring- necked Ducks and Green-
winged Teals. Many gulls as well.

[Kane Co. N of Glendale]
A pair of
Hooded Mergansers have been here for at least 4 days now. I noticed the Kane

here too.
Cheri
Medlin (16 Feb 2010) –
Western Bluebirds are
back. Just in time to get counted in the GBBC.
Dec 2009
Cheri [blujeans3] ( 7 Dec 2009) - [Lewis's Woodpecker]
Awesome bird! Seems to have its niche here in the canyon. A lifer for me. We are
new to Utah birding. I wonder if the Lewis's is a fairly common WP in Kane
County?
Nov 2009
Cheri (25 Nov 2009) - According to My Sibley's neither are
uncommon but both were nice to see
today. Green-winged Teals hanging with mallards and the Golden-crowned
Kinglet checking out my water source, a bird magnet!
Jul 2009
Cheri (25 Mar 2009) - This AM I have a Red-breasted Grosbeak here. I
do not know what the normal pattern is at this time of year in SW Utah
(transplant from Ohio where a spring migration is it) but I was surprised to see
one since I haven't had one here since April.
Colby Neuman ( 29 Jul 2009) - I just received a report via ebird of a LITTLE
BLUE HERON observed on July 20th in Kane County. The observer placed the
location of his sighting along
Highway 89 at some ponds just north of where SR 9 joins Highway 89 (this is
south of Orderville).
Jun 2009
Tim Avery (24 Mar 2009) - Doing two breeding bird surveys this month have
yielded a couple unusual birds that may be of interest. Along hwy 14 in Kane
County there were a pair of Zone-tailed Hawks earlier this week.
Jan 2009
Lu Giddings (10 Jan 2009) - I just arrived home from my southern swing a few
hours ago. Based on encouraging notes from Kris Purdy and Chuck Larue, I finally
did something I should have done yesterday morning: break out my field guides.
Upon review of my field notes I'm quite certain that the bird was definitely
*not* a Bullock's oriole. I believe there is a very good possibility that the
bird may have been a Streak-backed Oriole. My first impulse when I
saw the bird was that it was a hooded oriole, as the head was very clearly and
completely a brilliant orange in the overhead sunlight. There was no black cap
and no black eye line. The belly was completely orange. The underwings appeared
dark, but I didn't see them clearly. It had a slight black bib, more like the
bib of a Bullock's oriole than the larger (in relative terms) bib of a hooded
oriole. I was never in a position to see its back and I was not able to focus on
its upper wings or bill. I did not hear the bird call.
Lu Giddings (8 Jan 2009) - At about 11 a.m. this morning an adult male
Bullock's
oriole [see above Jan 10 post] was seen flying from the vicinity of Southwest
Applied Technology College in Kanab west across the road, just south of Kanab
Middle School, and toward Kanab Creek. I had excellent looks at the bird in
bright sunlight. I spotted the bird in the air as I drove south toward it. I
watched it for 5-6 seconds. At it closest it passed within about 50 feet. I did
not have time to attempt to relocate the bird after it disappeared into the
Kanab Creek gulch.
Jun 2008
Eugene Hunn (30 Jun 2008) - While not on your report list I have
photographed a pair of what sure look like Greater Scaup at Duck Creek
Village, Kane County. There are also a number of Lesser Scaup pairs in the
area as well as one or two Ring-necked Duck pairs. Greater Scaup, according to
the maps, are not supposed to nest south of northern Canada. Both the male and
female have the flat rounded crown and broad bill nail characteristic of
Greater as opposed to Lesser Scaups and the female shows the distinct pale
auricular patch typical of Greater females. The sinks tend to dry up in
mid-summer so it's not clear if they will nest successfully. I'm very familiar
with both species as I live in Seattle.
May 2008
Ryan P. O'Donnell (14 May 2008) - On Monday, May 12th, I saw a bird I
believe to be a Canyon Towhee in Grand Staircase-Escalante National
Monument. The bird was about 1-2 miles downstream from Hole-in-the-Rock Road
along an unnamed drainage that starts near Cave Point and later joins
Fiftymile Creek. The exact location of the bird was at UTM zone 12S,
easting0500003, northing 4128394, WGS84 projection. I first saw this bird on
Monday the 12th. Like all towhees, it was about sparrow shaped but larger than
most sparrows and with a longer tail. As the bird flew into a shrub, it
flashed rufous undertail coverts under a long dark tail. I could not get good
looks at it in the dark interior of the shrub but was able to make out a
rufous cap and pale patterning in the throat, and short sparrow-like bill
(ruling out some even less likely birds like Crissal Thrasher). Overall the
rest of the bird appeared dark gray. Unfortunately I didn't realize at the
time that this bird was so rare in the state. I had to pass by the location
two more times for my research and each time flushed a dark towhee-shaped bird
but was unable to relocate it after each initial flush. I know this bird is a
long shot and it's a long ways out of the way, but if anyone is in the area it
might be worth a look. It's a beautiful hike, anyways. More when I return in a
week or so.
Jun 2007
Tim Avery (28 Jun 2007) - Early Wednesday morning (around 1:00am) I was able to
relocate the Spotted Owl originally reported by Larry Tripp in Stout
Canyon. The bird started barking shortly after 1:00 am and I listened for about
15 minutes before heading out.
Larry Tripp (23 Jun 2007) - Last night I camped on a ridge top over looking
Stout Canyon and saw a couple unusual things. One of the first birds I saw while
scanning down into the canyon was a adult Goshawk perched in a dead tree that I
was able to watch in the scope for about 5 minutes. Then while watching Common
nighthawks soaring around before sundown a Black Swift flew right in
front of me at eye level. I was watching it soar around for a couple minutes
when another one joined it. I watched both of them at close range for a couple
more minutes until they worked there way to the south out of sight. I didn't
know of any nesting spots around there but at this time of year maybe. As it
started to get dark ... A Spotted Owl started calling right below me in
the canyon. When I got up today it was in the same area calling again.
Dec 2006
Dennis Shirley (22 Dec 2006) - I got a call from Lou Giddings last night
who is birding in San Juan County for a few days. He wanted me to pass along a
sighting of a Black Scoter at the Bullfrog/Hite ferry crossing on Lake
Powell. It is a female and was at the Bullfrog ramp on Thursday afternoon.
Sep 2005
Gary Rosenberg - This morning, Saturday 10 September, 2005, there was an
imm. male Anna's Hummingbird coming to the hummingbird feeders at the
Best Western in Mt. Carmel Junction. The bird was photographed.
May 2004
Kevin Wheeler - (8 May 2004) - A small and somewhat groggy group left St.
George this morning at 6:00 am to bird an area that we don't get to often -
Kanab....in Kanab...got views of a pair of Bullock's Orioles, a Phainopepla, and
a couple more Eurasian Collared-Doves....
Aug 2003
Eric Huish (20 Aug 2003) - At Navajo Lake... Some of the more interesting
birds included Downy, Hairy, and Three-toed Woodpeckers, GT Towhee, OC
Warbler, and Linc Sparrow. The Three-toed Woodpeckers where chipping bark of
dead fir trees along side the road at the west end of the lake.
Colby Neuman (14-15 Aug 2003) - SW of Bryce Canyon NP near Tropic Reservoir
along FR 087- Bird Highlights include: Peregrine Falcon - 1,
Williamson's Sapsucker - a juvenile and a male were seen on separate
occasions and Black-throated Gray (4) & Virginia (1) Warblers in a
Douglas-fir/Aspen forest
November 2000
About 50 BLACK ROSY-FINCHES were reported on the
shore of Lake Powell, just north of the Utah-Arizona border on Thursday, 11/09
(CL).
February 2000
Approximately ten WESTERN BLUEBIRDS were seen about two miles
outside of the Zion NP east entrance, along SR 9, on Monday, 2/14 (J&KB).
April 1999
A YELLOW-FOOTED GULL was seen at Lake Powell on Wednesday, 04/21 (CL,JS). The bird was
seen near the dam in Arizona, and then went to roost at Lone Rock Beach near Wahweap, in
Utah. It was found again on Friday, 04/23 near The Chains, a swimming area north of the
dam on the east side of the lake (GR). This is the second record for Yellow-footed Gull in
Utah, and the first record for Arizona.
At Lone Rock Beach on Lake Powell, a GREAT EGRET was seen on Sunday, 04/25 (MS,DW).
The YELLOW-FOOTED GULL which was seen at Lake Powell on Wednesday, 04/21, has not been
seen since Friday, 04/23.
February 1999
A YELLOW-BILLED LOON was found on Lake Powell on Monday, 02/01, not far from where a
Yellow-billed Loon wintered from 1993-1996 (JS). The bird was sighted in the upper part of
Warm Creek Bay. It was seen from a boat, but the bird may be observed from shore by
driving to Crosby Canyon on the road from Big Water, and hiking to the east over a small
divide along the north side of the flooded part of Crosby Canyon.
