Hey Dan, Look at the background in that sandpiper photo. Are you sure that photo wasn't taken by the Mars rover, Curiosity?

One species being Baird's Sandpiper (see Rick's photo) that is a life bird for me. I wasn't disappointed to find 6 Baird's, several Westerns. In addition, there were 4 Avocets, 52 Black necked Stilts, and 23 White Faced Ibis. I guess migration is getting a good start here in Utah. Dan Kendrick
