Now that we've left the big city of Tucson for small-town Patagonia, Arizona, we wanted to wrap up our time there with a post on the birds we saw in Tucson. Although we didn't do as much birding as we might have if we weren't so busy bicycling, we still added quite a few new species to our life lists. Most (but not all) of the following were new for us! Since Patagonia is known for its excellent birding, and the elevation is higher than Tucson's (4055' versus 2643'), we're hoping to add to our Arizona bird totals in the coming month. Stay tuned, as always!

Will do, Dad S! He is wanting a better camera now with more zoom to improve his bird photos!

I've really been enjoying your latest trip entries, guys - great pics and nice to see the road bikes. The hilly rides must be some workout! Hey you guys are missing freezing rain today in Chapel Hill (after a sunny 70 degrees and our first MSBL practice yesterday, Barry)...

We've been following the crazy NC weather, David! We don't miss the winter one bit -- Arizona has been great. Hope you'll get some prolonged spring-like weather soon. Have fun with the baseball and good luck to the team!

After years of living in North Carolina (Emily's home state), we spent 18 months living oceanfront on Ambergris Caye, Belize, a year road-tripping the US in a Honda CR-V, a year in Playa del Carmen, Mexico, and are now roaming North America in our 32' motorhome, Pearl, following warm weather whenever possible.
