Desert Rivers Audubon Society: Glendale Recharge Ponds w/ Kathe Anderson Field Trip

Expect to be hot—and hot on the trail of returning shorebirds.

We’ll start from Scottsdale about 5am to arrive in Glendale before the sun comes up.  We’ll prowl the wetlands hoping for the usual variety of birds—mostly ducks, raptors and other water-loving species like black phoebes, pipits and swallows, but we’ll hope for an abundance of shorebirds returning from points north.  Perhaps we’ll get lucky with some unusual species for the desert, like dunlin or whimbrels. We’ll find a cool indoor spot to go over the list.

Return to Scottsdale by 9:30am. Difficulty: 1-2. Limited to 7 participants.  Please register with Kathe at kathe.coot@cox.net.
