Spring in the Great Salt Lake provides essential habitat for millions of migrating and breeding birds that thrive in our climate. Farmington Bay, Utah is home to more than 200 species, and nearly 60 are known to nest there. Some species you'll find in the springtime are Western and Clark’s Grebes, American White Pelicans, White-faced Ibis, Sandhill Cranes, Black-necked Stilts, American Avocets, and Snowy Plovers.
Join us for the evening session where we will capture birds in the transitional hues of sunset with talented wildlife photographer Mary Anne Karren as we take advantage of the prime wildlife conditions at Farmington Bay using telephoto lenses. We will meet at 6:00pm in front of the George S. and Dolores Doré Eccles Wildlife Education Center. From there, we will separate into different groups.
