Southeast Arizona, February 17-26, 2010

The Mule Mountains near where we stayed with our good friend, Mike Turisk, in Bisbee, Arizona. The Sulphur Springs Valley is in the distance. We thank Mike for his great hospitality and for being our guide for much of the trip.
Before we got to Bisbee, we spent a few hours checking out a feedlot at Red Rock, near Tucson, trying to find the Ruddy Ground-Dove - which we did (one female with Inca Doves). No decent photos of the dove, however.

Yellow Headed Blackbirds at Red Rock

The Yellow-headed Blackbirds here reminded Betsy of Christmas lights.
