Road to 300: My Biggest Birding Challenge BEGINS

Описание: The Road to 300: Utah challenge begins!

I’m trying to see 300 bird species in Utah, and with 285 already on my list, we’re kicking things off by searching wetlands, fields, and open water for our next target. Along the way, we encounter an incredible mix of birds — from elegant grebes and striking avocets to massive pelicans and my favorite hawk species.

We’ll also explore an amazing story of how researchers are using GPS trackers and weather radar to help airports avoid collisions with pelicans, making flying safer for everyone.

If you enjoy birding, wildlife adventures, or just love discovering new species, join me for the start of this exciting journey!

📌 About the Challenge: Road to 300: Utah is my quest to find and document 300 bird species in my home state. Some episodes will be planned expeditions, others just quick updates — but every bird counts toward the goal!
