Description
The Great Salt Lake Shorelands Preserve is a unique system of salt and fresh water marshes, ponds, pools, sloughs and mudflats. It is a rich feeding ground for tens of thousands of migrating birds, which use the Great Salt Lake as a resting point on their journeys from Canada to points in Central and South America. In fact, some of the largest gatherings of wildlife ever recorded on the Great Salt Lake have been observed here.
The innovative visitor center at the Great Salt Lake Shorelands Preserve offers you the chance to experience and learn about the wetlands and its birds while keeping your feet dry!
LOCATION
The preserve is along the eastern shore of the Great Salt Lake between Farmington Bay Waterfowl Management Area and the Antelope Island State Park Causeway.

My backyard... Beautiful!
Joan Escala-Usarralde replied:
I lived a few minutes away from this location. It was one of my backyards as well. An excellent spot for birds, landscape, sunset, or even night photography.

There is a big print of this image at Tanner Clinic, Layton. They put some of my stuff on the walls...
