Monterrey Meetings

10,000 Birds

Work brings me regularly to Monterrey in Nuevo Leon, northern Mexico. Acorn Woodpecker and Black-crested Titmouse were plentiful and confiding. We met Marilyn and Leonardo at a non-descript fast-food joint’s parking lot and within 10 minutes we were in Parque Nacional La Estanzuela. David learned three things that day.

Winter Wanderland

10,000 Birds

I flew into Denver from Mexico. I was high and happy, not from “420” drugs but from the altitude and the anticipation of seeing woodpeckers and owls I had never seen before. Soon Steller’s Jay , both Downy and Hairy Woodpecker , Mountain Chickadee , Pygmy Nuthatch and White-breasted Nuthatch were everywhere.
