BRIGHTON BIRD COUNT
Leaders: Jeanne Le Ber and Ray Smith

Please join Great Salt Lake Audubon for our annual Brighton Bird Count. We will meet at 8:00 a.m. at the top of Big Cottonwood Canyon in the parking lot adjacent to the Silver Lake Visitor Center. Birders can select one of three birding options:
  1) Silver Lake (easy walk),
  2) Lake Solitude (moderate hike),
  3) Twin Lake (strenuous hike).
Novice to expert birders are welcome to participate.

A potluck lunch follows at noon, after a pleasant morning. Please bring a dish to share and your own eating utensils, plate, glass. GSLA will provide cold drinks.
