International Hummingbird Society: Sedona Hummingbird Festival – Ranger Station/Woods Canyon/Hummingbird Banding Birding Field Trip

Our highly-rated Birding Field Trips are led by experienced local guides through Northern Arizona Audubon Society. You will visit some of the locals’ favorite birding spots and be treated to sightings of some of this area’s iconic birds. Have fun spending time with fellow hummingbird enthusiasts as you learn about other common and unusual birds in the Sedona area.

After meeting in the parking lot at the Red Rock Ranger station, you will visit the onsite feeders to see hummingbirds and 3 Orioles, and hike Woods Canyon to look for a wide range of birds including 5 sparrows, 3 towhees, 2 kingbirds, Phainopepla, Ash-throated and Brown-crested Flycatchers, Bell’s and Gray Vireos, Northern Mockingbirds, Crissal Thrasher, Summer and Western Tanagers, Juniper Titmouse, Canyon and Bewick’s Wrens, and many more. There is not much shade on this hike, so dress for sun. Then you will drive a short distance to our Saturday Hummingbird Banding station in the Village of Oak Creek. (Entry is included with this field trip).

NOTE: Do not meet at SPAC. Meet at the Red Rock Ranger Station and Visitor Center, 8375 Hwy 179, (one mile south of the Village of Oak Creek) at 6:30am. Trip concludes at 9:30am (option to stay later at banding site)
