Arizona, 2022
We moved from Northern Vermont to Patagonia, Arizona in November, 2021 to extend our outdoor time throughout the year. We've enjoyed the warmer weather and summer green season created by monsoon rains. We've had to learn a whole new suite of calls and plumage for Western birds. However we've also seen some our Eastern birds as well. Here's what we found...
