Great Salt Lake Shorelands Preserve in Utah, USA

There are at least 27 private reserves along the shores of the Great Salt Lake in Utah, United States. This one, owned by the Nature Conservancy, stands in a marshland that’s an important rest stop for birds migrating on the Pacific Flyway path. The Pacific Flyway runs from Alaska all the way down to Patagonia in South America. It’s one of four major north-to-south migration routes for birds in America. Nature reserves like this keep important points along the flyway intact and undeveloped.
