Sorry for the limited audience but I think we can keep this short. I moved back to AZ a little over a year ago. I remember from my last years here that there is a very special canyon for butterflies in AZ and another place for hummingbirds. Any fellow Zonies care to re-enlighten
me? My shutter finger is itchy for identified flying objects.

I believe you are referring to Madera Canyon.

Yes, we stayed at the Chuparosa Bed and Breakfast where the
Hummingbird Society periodically catches and bands humming birds. Very interesting.

Ramsey Canyon (?) in Sierra Vista. Southern part of the state. Migrating hummers go through here; also some very pretty & colorful birds.

Thanks, Since I carve butterflies out of tupelo gum and paint them with oil paint this is great reference material. One hard part is knowing how the bottom of the wings look.
