Yes, It is now open for Birders. I had never been there before.
At the gate you just announce yourself as a birder, and park near the entrance.


Probably the best location in the Green Valley/Tucson for ducks and shore birds. It can be really exciting during migration. Thanks for telling me

Sure
I read that it had been closed before. Today there were at l east 80 shovelers. A number of mallards. Widgeons and a large slew of rock pigeons.

Yesterday I had a fun outing to Madera Canyon (a great and natural birding area I frequent).

There were 14 wild Turkeys, 8 Mexican Jays , 3 Hepatic Tanagers (I think they are beautiful), 5 Acorn Woodpeckers, Lesser Goldfinches, 2 White-breasted Nuthatches and a Arizona Woodpecker.

I recommend downloads.

Hope you enjoy


Wonderful images JD

Great series...I always get a chuckle from the upside down nuthatches.
