– Thursday, Oct 12, 2023 – Lower Camp Creek: This is on the way up to
Seven Springs, north of Scottsdale. I’m hoping we’ll catch resident birds
found in the higher desert (about 3,300’), lingering migrants (maybe some
warblers and orioles?), plus early fall migrants (perhaps Townsend’s
Solitaires and Western Bluebirds). The habitat varies from desert to the
lovely shaded creek bottom, suggesting different species. Difficulty: 2.5
(uphill climb out, but only about 1/3 mile). We’ll start about 7:15am from
Scottsdale and wrap up back in Scottsdale by noon-ish. Limited to 7
vaccinated participants who are members of Sonoran Audubon (opening to
others at two weeks prior to the trip date if there is room). Logistics to be
decided a few days before the trip.
