Patagonia Sonoita Nature Conservancy

Howdee all,

Jeff and I spent our last day in Patagonia at the

Nature conservancy not far from the center of town.

Jeff hears and spots a singing Eastern Meadowlark

We bird along the creek

Lots of Robins around..taking baths in the creek…

Black Phoebe hunting for insects. It was a beautiful, warm day. Trees were starting to leaf out..

Birding the meadow for sparrowsA Bridled titmouse check out this hole..  Vermillion flycatchers darting about catching bugs… Lush green vegetation around the creek

we find a Lucys warbler in the low vegetation. Warm sun glowing thru the trees…. We hike back the railroad bed trail   A Cardinal…a bit different than the cardinals in the east..  We say goodbye to the Nature Conservancy…

And head over to Patons for one last look at

The Violet crowned hummerAnd the Broad-billedUntil we meet again….
