Birding in the rain can be fun too! For the last week in the Salt Lake area of Utah it has been raining, almost non-stop. In spite of the rain, or perhaps because of it, I added many first-of-year birds, more than a dozen species to my Utah life list, and even one new life bird. It seems that when ever I go birding in the rain - during a drizzle, not a downpour - that I usually have pretty good luck with finding birds that are not normally seen during "prime" viewing conditions. The weather for bird photography was less than ideal, but as long as it wasn't raining too hard, I took the camera along and got a few photos. See the rest of the bird photos taken in the rain...
