Sandhill Crane Bird Walk - Saturday, April 3rd 2010

Join the Wild Bird Center, Division of Wildlife Resources and the Nature Conservancy on a free Bird Walk to see Sandhill Cranes as they migrate to Utah for the spring nesting season. Sandhill Cranes make a spectacular display, as males court females in an elaborate dance with ballet like jumps and pirouettes, all with great trumpeting as they vocalize their excitement for the spring mating season.

We will leave from the Wild Bird Center at 10 a.m., Saturday, April 3rd in a car caravan. Bill Fenimore, expert field birder and author of the Backyard Birds of Utah will lead the Bird Walk with Phil Douglass, Division of Wildlife Resources Outreach Manager.
