Greetings from Tucson, AZ
For about the past week I have been conducting bird surveys in Saguaro National Park and Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. I haven't been taking a camera out with me but I think that will change . . . there are just so many photo ops! Luckily, my ipod has a camera, and while the quality isn't good at least it is something.
Here are a few pics to show one of the areas that I surveyed in:
Western Diamondback Rattlesnake-I hiked in about a mile on a trail then had to cut off to get to my transect. I picked the right spot, this rattlesnake was about 10 feet off the trail. |
A beautiful canyon that was next to my transect. Some nice migrants such as Pacific-slope and Hammond's Flycatcher were in this canyon. |
The same canyon as above-Canyon and Rock Wrens were present, as well as Black-chinned and Costa's Hummingbird. |
