We live on the western edge of Wasatch National Forest in North-central Utah. The end of August, 2019 there was a fire on our mountain. No human lives lost, but several homes were, along with so much vegetation. Our family love this area because of the great variety of wildlife we get to observe throughout the year; deer, raccoons, an occasional moose, turkeys, red foxes, hawks, and a great variety of birds. We were concerned whether that would continue after the fire. We鈥檝e been pleasantly surprised to hear and see 2 Great horned owls again in the pines and other trees around our home. They鈥檙e very vocal from dusk until near midnight and again in the morning from just before dawn until the sun is clearly up. We鈥檝e dissected their pellets with our grandson and found some pretty interesting 鈥渟tuff鈥. This world is truly a magnificent gift. Let鈥檚 take care of it.
