10,000 Birds

As many of you might know, I have been concentrating my bird efforts primarily to just one county, Pima Country which surrounds the Tucson, Arizona area. There is believed to be a very small breeding population of Mississippi Kites that occupy a small area that borders Pima and Cochise Counties.

They are located in the Santa Cruz Flats just north of Tucson, and are quite honestly, living right alongside the road. A little less than a mile away, there is a spot where a nice population of Burrowing Owls, have been relocated in hopes of starting a new breeding population. This is a look at the man-made burrow openings.

A widely published writer, popular speaker, and enthusiastic tour leader in North American and Europe, Rick lives in Tucson and in Vancouver, British Columbia, with his wife, Alison, and their chocolate Lab, Gellert. I saw it while visiting a small botanic garden somewhere in Tucson. I had no idea I should have been embarrassed.
