Winter brings a large population
of bald eagles and raptors to the Great Salt Lake in
northern Utah. On one of my first safaris there in 2008 I counted 172 bald
eagles...wow. Utah's winters are cold,
forcing many raptors and owls to hunt in the daytime. This gives us a
chance to photograph birds
like bald eagles, short-eared owls, barn owls, northern harriers, American
kestrels, rough-legged hawks, and many others that hunt the refuges. We travel to Antelope Island in the
Great Salt Lake, and Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge as well. Participants -

We meet in
Woods Cross, Utah, just five miles north of Salt Lake City
on I-15.. Local hotel
accommodations and restaurants are relatively inexpensive
and I generally stay at the Comfort Inn in Woods Cross.
The deposit is 50% via check, Paypal, Venmo, or credit card,
and the balance is due halfway between the deposit date and
the safari date unless you are booking within 3 months, then
full payment is due.
This safari is FREE
if you do the Yellowstone Winter Wildlife Safari before
it.
Date: Sunday, Feb 21, 2027 $400

I've spent my 40-year wildlife photography career shooting
in the American West. The first 24 years shooting out of
Utah, the past 16 years out of California. The photo
safaris that I lead are all to the best locations, at the
best times, during peak wildlife activity.
