Birding
Highlighting 104 Unique Birds
Within Jefferson County, Floyds Fork is arguably the best location for birding. Here is a list of the birds witnessed by my family while visiting Floyds Fork with the highlights being the Bald Eagle, the Osprey, the Sandhill Cranes and Northern Orioles. One time we enjoyed watching two adult Bald Eagles and a juvenile flying overhead for over 10 minutes.
