Ok so here's the first post about te trip to Utah: We went to Tracy Aviary near Salt Lake City. It was really cool! And I took TONS!!!! of pictures (like 300!) It was my kinda place: a zoo with just birds :) haha I dragged my family around for a little over two hours and would have happily spent all day there :) - Wow I use smiley faces and exclamations a lot! Anyway so here are some of my pictures-
This is a juvenile ring necked-gull.
There was some wild birds in a pond before you went into the aviary and I found this bird but I couldn't figure out what this bird was and spent like 30+ minutes trying to ID it! But didn't find anything that looked like it that was in the area.
There was a rare bird exhibit too which was really neat! This one was called a kea
They had these wooden bird shapes on a fence
