Another pelican sighting

The Great Salt Lake is huge, over 17,000 square miles of land owned by the federal government and the state of Utah. 

This inland sea is too salty to be an ideal fishing spot, but it attracts over 10 million migratory birds each year. 

About two years ago, we spotted some American white Pelicans fishing in one of the ponds surrounding the Park Meadows golf course. 

We saw them again this year and this Wednesday I filmed and photographed some passing and fishing through Park City, that’s only 50 km as the crow flies from the Great Salt Lake. 

Isn’t it fabulous to see these birds in the middle of our landlocked, Rocky Mountain town?
