Tucson Bird Alliance: Southeast Arizona Birding Festival – Harshaw Creek Field Trip

Join Patagonia resident and guide, Jake Thompson, to bird his favorite birding patch. Harshaw Creek in the Patagonia Mountains is lined with oaks and sycamores making it a great location for woodpeckers, flycatchers, tanagers, and more. We might catch a look at one of the Coppery-tailed Trogons that breed through here and Mexican Jays are common in the oaks. Limited to 9 participants.

Difficulty: Moderate. Some walking on mild slopes, and possibly rocky/uneven surfaces, but mostly on gravel road. Drive time to location approximately one hour on paved & gravel roads.
