Hi,
Dennis Shirley taught a beginning/intermediate
birding class a few years back (maybe he still does). In this class, he had lots
of great handouts. On the Ptarmigan hunt last Saturday, he gratiously gave me
permission to use these materials to develop some Web-oriented birder help
pages, which I've started adding to my site.
Admittedly, for you birding veterans, this stuff is
pretty basic. However, I think there's good info to be gleaned by many of us
less-advanced local birders. Most of the information is geared toward Utah
County, but much would apply throughout the state.
I only have a few pages done so far, but hope to
keep adding stuff. If anyone has anything they want to contribute, please get in
touch with me. Dennis also mentioned that he had some decision tree stuff on
gull identification. I hope to get that from him and add it to the site. For me,
gulls and shorebirds can be really tough.
Here's the link:
If you see typos, data errors, or have suggestions
for improvement, please let me know privately.
