Arizona Birds-2006

Photographs taken on an early June, 2006 visit to Southeast Arizona. I spent two days with Stuart Healy, a terrific birding guide out of Sierra Vista. The photographs are a sampling of what we saw and many are just diagnostic or documentary in nature. I saw 130 species of birds and 25 of them were lifers!

The best bird of the trip! A gorgeous species seen in Garden Canyon. Sat here for a while allowing us to photograph it, but the light and angle weren't the best. Who's complaining though!
