Farmington Bay

For Friday Fun Day, Mom had another great idea. I heard there are tons of Bald Eagles at Farmington Bay. (Actual quote from neighbor, "My daughter stopped counting at 47.") I was thinking, educational and cool to see. We had a little trouble finding the place. Apparently the nature center website has yet to put Legacy Parkway on their map, which proved to be a little road block to have to get around.

We did find this fantastic FRONT yard along the way. Yes, I said front yard and there was property for sale close by in case you are ready for much more interesting new neighbors than I am sure you already have. The pictures really don't do it justice, so if you happen to be heading to West Bountiful, let us know, we can tell you how to get there and check it out for yourself.

Once we finally made it to the bay, this friendly sign met us at the locked gate. Just in case you were thinking of leaving an animal, don't do it here! By the time we found the right entrance, Bella was begging, to please go home, over and over. She had enough of the drive and was not interested in trying to find birds. Dad finally convinced her to get out of the car and look around, but she really found it pretty disappointing.
And here it is, the lone bald eagle. If you can't see it, that's okay. We aren't really certain if it is a bald eagle, but let us pretend for just a little while. And please don't bring up that it might have helped to bring binoculars!
