Kolob Reservoir, 6-29-01

["Rick Fridell" <rfridell at redrock dot net>]

Hello,
This morning (6/29) I visited Kolob Reservoir (Washington County, UT).  The
highlight was a Black Swift flying over the Reservoir.  The timing is very
interesting.....perhaps a late migrant, or a foraging individual from an
unknown Southern Utah nesting locale?

I also saw several Lewis's Woodpeckers on the west side of Kolob Reservoir
(thanks to Judy Jordan!) including two pairs actively feeding young.  One of
these nests was located in a cavity in an aspen right next to the road along
the west side of the lake.

Other interesting birds included:
two Caspian Terns
Western Grebe
Clark's Grebe
Redhead

Take care and enjoy the summer birds,
