Sabine's Gull at Strawberry Res.

[Utah Birds <utahbirds at netscape dot com>]

Early evening 
1 Oct 2005
Strawberry Reservoir, Wasatch Co.

Kristin Purdy reported a Juvenile SABINE'S GULL along the north shore of Strawberry Reservoir.  The gull was seen between Chicken Creek East fisherman's access and another fisherman's access farther to the east. Chicken Creek East is a well signed access off Hwy 40 between mile markers 41 and 42 and has a parking lot with restroom facilities.  

The gull was spending a lot of time along the narrow shoreline and would periodically fly along the shore one way and then the other.  You might have to walk from the parking lot toward the lake in order to get a good look.  The gull allowed Kristin to get quite close, so she got some good looks and was able to study the bird in detail.
