Dugway, Utah
(E-mails from Ryan O'Donnell, 10 Sep 2012)
This weekend I traveled to the Dugway area to help a friend with some
mammal studies there. While in the town of Dugway, I found an adult male
VERMILION FLYCATCHER near his house. According to eBird, this is the first
county record for Tooele County, and the fourth record of this species in
Utah outside of Washington County. Unfortunately, this bird is not
chaseable for most people, as Dugway is a secured U.S. Army installation
and is not open to the public. Here is a photo of the bird:
