Lincoln Beach

There is a cool little state park on the southern end of Utah Lake. To get there you have to drive West of Springville through some beautiful farm country and Benjamin, Utah. We drove out there after diner tonight. Megan loved the scenery (I think it reminded her of home).

We also have a new gadget, or gizmo if you will. A new digital SLR canon (w/ a telephoto lens). WOOT! We took a ton of photos to mess around and start getting used to it. Also on our trip tonight we got some pics of what we thought were a few common birds. When we came home and looked them up we were surprised at what we found. 5 new birds to add to the list, a few of which were not on my life list.

Tree Swallow
Willet
Redhead
Northern Shoveler
Wilson's Phalarope
Gadwall

That puts us up to 43 species for the weekend (extended weekend).
