William Wise Photo Nature Notes is a wildlife, birding and nature photography blog documenting the beauty, design and wonder of God’s creation. -- "What a wildly wonderful world, God! You made it all, with Wisdom at Your side, made earth overflow with your wonderful creations." Psalms 104 The Message After a full week in the mountains of Park City, Utah, it was time to head back home to Georgia. On our way to the airport, we decided to stop in Salt Lake City; for how could we come to Utah and not see the Great Salt Lake? I suppose it is my fault for never studying the Great Salt Lake, or even looking at photos before, but I must admit that I was a bit let down. It certainly wasn't the most attractive landscape I've looked upon. Perhaps it was just the time I was visiting, but the water was low, stagnant and smelled pretty bad. Besides gulls, the only other abundant wildlife were thousands upon thousands of brine flies. Maybe I'm not being fair, and maybe I'll be back again on a better day, but I'm quite glad we chose Park City over Salt Lake City for our weeklong vacation!

You made it all, with Wisdom at Your side, made earth overflow with your wonderful creations." Psalms 104 The Message During our family vacation to Utah, we took the short trip on the historic Heber Valley Railroad. As we passed through Deer Creek Reservoir, I pretty much hung out the window with my camera! There were several species by the water that I didn't observe up in Park City.

At the suggestion of a fellow iNaturalist user, we made the drive over to Snowbird during our weeklong vacation to Park City, Utah. It was well worth the trip! Snowbird is located in Little Cottonwood Canyon in the Wasatch Range of the Rocky Mountains. It is a famous ski resort and summer retreat. The mountain views, from the valleys and the peaks, were superb.
As I’m not always one for heights, my nerves were a bit on edge as we sat waiting for the aerial tram to pick us up. But watching the trip up the mountainside through the glass bottom car was exhilarating. The ride was quite smooth and my fears were unfounded.
Upon Hidden Peak, the chilled wind and distant vistas had us all in awe. I captured a few shots of the Golden-mantled Ground Squirrels, Callospermophilus lateralis, that were scurrying around the observation building courtyard looking for fallen concession scraps and handouts. We also walked through the 600 foot Peruvian Tunnel to view the historical displays.
The long, slow chair ride down the Peruvian Lift was enough to turn my stomach a few times! Kept in your seat by only a thin metal bar, the heights were dizzying. At one point over a particularly high drop, the lift stopped, sending our chair bobbing and swaying while my wife gripped my arm. In all, Snowbird was definitely a highlight of our Utah vacation.

I was in Tucson, Arizona for our annual Bible Conference and made an early morning drive through Saguaro National Park (East). I found and photographed my first Pyrrhuloxia. The Cactus Forest Loop Drive was so beautiful, I returned the following morning for an 8 mile run!
