Rusty Blackbird (Rare in Utah)

Fireworks on Lower River Road

Reports of hundreds of Evening Grosbeak along with a large flock of Cedar and possibly Bohemian Waxwing provided the spark for us to travel to Francis. We were rewarded with all but the Bohemian Waxwing, but American Goldfinch, tons of Robins and a little character that we couldn't id. Rusty Blackbird? Grackle? Brewer's Blackbird? We'll get it sorted out!
