	Magpie in flight Magpies in flight are very distinctive, with their flashes of white on the winds.
	Ferruginous Hawk The ferruginous hawk, Buteo regalis is the largest buteo in North America. It has a rust colored back, and the underside is white. It is definitely a regal buzzard.

	A Golden Eagle There were a lot of Golden Eagles in Utah this trip.
