Tucson Bird Alliance: Southeast Arizona Birding Festival – High Elevation in the Catalinas Field Trip

Join Wesley Homoya of Natural Selections Tours to enjoy birding where Tucson residents escape the summer heat!

In the small mountain hamlet of Summerhaven we’ll look for mixed warbler flocks which may include Red-faced, Orange-crowned, Virginia’s, Townsend’s, Hermit, Wilson’s, and Grace’s Warblers. Birding in the conifer forests of Mt. Lemmon can also produce species like Hairy Woodpecker, Steller’s Jay, Mountain Chickadee, and Western Flycatcher.

Limited to 9 participants.

Difficulty: Moderate. Some walking on slopes/inclines at elevation. Bathroom will be available at different times. Drive time to location about 50 minutes on paved roads.
