SL City Cemetery

["Glenda Cotter" <gcotter at upress dot utah dot edu>]

Though tempted to continue the corrupted spellings of recent 
postings, I'll refrain.... Many thanks to all who contributed to the 
Steller's Jay/Vaux's Swift discussion. I found it fascinating, learned 
a lot, and would enjoy seeing similar discussions more frequently 
on the birdnet. 

Visited the City Cemetery yesterday from about 2:30 to 3:30 pm. In 
addition to all the usual suspects (magpies, flickers, robins, downy 
woodpecker, chickadees, r-c kinglets, creepers, solitaire), I at last 
found both Red-breasted (2) and White-breasted (1) Nuthatches. 
The WBN was in the junipers just east of 960 E 405 N (where the 
salt pile and waste dumpster are located), the RBN was in a line 
directly west of there, near the cemetery boundary, both in the 
large evergreens in the cemetery and in the deciduous trees just 
the other side of the fence above the tennis courts. Was treated to 
wonderful looks at both birds. Also saw a healthy-looking red fox!

Thanks to all who regularly contribute their bird sightings!
