Hi folks,
Bob and I escaped the heat this morning by heading up to Barfoot Park in the Chiricahuas. We saw a nice variety of birds, but no warblers! The highlights for us: Scott's Oriole, Bullock's Oriole, a nesting hummingbird (possibly Broad-tailed), Mexican Chickadee, Western Tanager, and a pair of Montezuma Quail by the side of the road in Pinery Canyon.
On the way home we swung by Lake Cochise in Willcox. In amidst the American Avocets, Black-necked Stilts, and Wilson's Phalaropes, we saw two Marbled Godwits, two Willets, a single Long-billed Curlew, and a sprinkling of Yellow-headed Blackbirds for good measure.
