Tundra swans have already arrived at the Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge.
Breeding in western Alaska, they stop in northern Utah each year to rest and refuel before continuing their long journey home. We are fortunate to witness their beauty, even if only for a short time.
After a long stretch of basking in the sun, the Bald Eagle lifts off from his "hammock".
The day ahead would be spent searching for food, but by evening the eagle would return to his favorite place to rest and observe the world before night falls.
Generally, life is good.
We’re having a "winter" in Northern Utah that’s basically just Spring in a trench coat. I think the Bald Eagles are confused or just disappointed in our lack of commitment to the season.
This Bald Eagle has clearly embraced our warm winter, he settled onto a hammock of dry branches with the ultimate "I’m not mad, just disappointed".
Generally, life is good.
