I have no idea what this bird is. These were taken just outside the Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge in Northern Utah on Oct 1st. There were a pair. It was hard to catch any photo, so I've put a couple of different angles.

Me too. Considering where you live, I second it.

Good timber does not grow with ease:

The stronger wind, the stronger trees.

The further sky, the greater length,

The more the storm, the more their strength.
