SUMMARY:Southwest Wings: Spring Fling - Owl Prowl Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:The Huachuca Mountains are home to several sought-after nocturnal birds\, including Whiskered and Western Screech-Owls\, Common Poorwill\, and Mexican Whip-poor-will. \n On this trip\, professional guide Jenny MacFarland will target these birds with the possibility of seeing many other nocturnal creatures. Please wear darker or khaki clothing and a soft material fleece or jacket; avoid light and bright clothing hats and anything that makes a lot of rustling noises\, such as crinkly nylon windbreakers.’ \n​Owl trips are conducted only at the spring event and\, like all birding\, there are no guarantees except that we will have a good time. \n Hiking Difficulty: 2 easy\, Darkness. Bring a flashlight or headlamp and field guide. Cameras are okay. Best suited for intermediate to advanced birders. Guide: Jenny MacFarland. \n​ \nMeeting place: Ramsey Canyon Preserve parking lot\, at the top of Ramsey Canyon Road. Map link \n  \n  \nSouthwest Wings Birding and Nature Festival is Arizona’s oldest birding festival. Since 1991 we’ve been offering small group trips through monsoons and droughts … and even a global pandemic.  \n​The Southwest Wings Spring Fling will run from Wednesday May 6 to Saturday May 9\, 2026.

SUMMARY:Southwest Wings: Spring Fling - Ramsey Canyon Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:Join bird guide\, Dan Hoobler on a visit to the world famous Ramsey Canyon in the Huachuca Mountains.  \nOwned by The Nature Conservancy\, this area has been a hot spot for birding for decades. The lower canyon is good for Montezuma and Gambel’s Quails\, Gila and Ladder-backed Woodpeckers\, Rufous-crowned\, Chipping and Botteri’s Sparrows\, Blue and Black-headed Grosbeaks\, and other canyon outlet species. Ramsey Canyon is a reliable location to find Arizona and Acorn Woodpeckers\, Hepatic Tanager\, Grace’s and Red-faced Warblers and Painted Redstart as well as hummingbirds around the information centre. Be prepared for a slow hike covering two miles with a steep 200-foot elevation gain. Bring hat\, water\, sun protection\, and wear trail shoes. Hiking  \nDifficulty: 4 difficult. Guide Dan Hoobler. \n​ \nMeeting place: Ramsey Canyon Preserve parking lot\, at the top of Ramsey Canyon Road. Map link \n  \n  \nSouthwest Wings Birding and Nature Festival is Arizona’s oldest birding festival. Since 1991 we’ve been offering small group trips through monsoons and droughts … and even a global pandemic.  \n​The Southwest Wings Spring Fling will run from Wednesday May 6 to Saturday May 9\, 2026.
