Tucson Bird Alliance: Paton Center for Hummingbirds Field Trip

Meeting Location: Paton Center for Hummingbirds, underneath the pavilion in the backyard (477 Pennsylvania Ave, Patagonia, AZ 85624)

Trip difficulty: Easy to moderate; Less than 1 mile on level but uneven surfaces (trails are mostly packed dirt or consist of wood chips). Drinking water, restrooms and benches are available at the Paton Center.

Description: Join us for a relaxing morning at the Paton Center, featuring short, easy walks (less than a mile total) along trails like the Cuckoo Corridor and Gray Hawk Birding Trail. We’ll also spend some unhurried time enjoying the activity around the bird feeders. Trails on site are mostly packed dirt or gravel, with the possibility of brief walking in the dry bed of Sonoita Creek. Known for its vibrant backyard birdlife and scenic setting, the Paton Center for Hummingbirds offers the perfect opportunity to experience the unique birds of southeast Arizona.

Limited to 10 participants. All ages welcome.
