Below you will find the checklist from our Jackson Hole float trip on July 28, 2019. We found 33 species along the river and another 9 in the camp. Of special interest, there were several species of shorebirds along the river so the annual fall migration of shore and water birds is starting. This is about the average date for first migrants along the river. Thanks to everyone for your participation.
