After observing Great Salt Lake for over 70 years, Dalton became alarmed when she heard people say our lake is &#8220;doing great.&#8221; Dalton wondered how the GSL could be doing so great when all she saw was its vast mudflats and dried shoreline. Dalton will share photographs and insights from her project, during which she collaborated with a nationally published poet and performance artist.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5>About the Speaker<\/h5>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3335 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/tracyaviary.org\/liberty-park\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/Linda-at-Great-Sal-Lake-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tracyaviary.org\/liberty-park\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/Linda-at-Great-Sal-Lake-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tracyaviary.org\/liberty-park\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/Linda-at-Great-Sal-Lake-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/tracyaviary.org\/liberty-park\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/Linda-at-Great-Sal-Lake-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tracyaviary.org\/liberty-park\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/Linda-at-Great-Sal-Lake-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/tracyaviary.org\/liberty-park\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/Linda-at-Great-Sal-Lake-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/tracyaviary.org\/liberty-park\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/Linda-at-Great-Sal-Lake-640x480.jpg 640w, https:\/\/tracyaviary.org\/liberty-park\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/Linda-at-Great-Sal-Lake-1200x900.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/tracyaviary.org\/liberty-park\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/Linda-at-Great-Sal-Lake-1920x1440.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 639px) 98vw, (max-width: 1199px) 64vw, 300px\" \/>Dalton holds a B.S. from the University of Utah, an M.Ed. from Utah State University, and an art endorsement from the Utah State Office of Education. Dalton grew up in the arms of the Great Salt Lake, building sandcastles and floating in the salty water with her siblings. As an artist, her eye has turned toward the GSL and the 10 million birds who rely on us and our lake for survival. In 2024, Dalton was awarded &#8220;Highly Commended&#8221; by Bird Photographer of the Year for an image in the Urban Wildlife category\u2014capturing a mother mallard rushing her ducklings to safety from a domestic cat.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>This event is part of an ongoing series by the <a href=\"https:\/\/greatsaltlakeaudubon.org\">Great Salt Lake Audubon<\/a> called Birds &#8216;n Bites.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Join Linda Dalton Walker as she reveals the results of her two-year photographic pilgrimage documenting the rivers feeding Great Salt Lake\u2014the Jordan, Weber, and Bear.
