A beautiful and elusive bird found only in a few Arizona mountain canyons, this Elegant Trogan is much sought after, and often missed. This time it was worth climbing up the steep, rough Carrie Nation Trail in Madera Canyon, to spot this great bird.
This beautiful bird was photographed in a wildlife park in Tucson, Arizona this week.
This Scaly-breasted Munia (previously named Nutmeg Mannikin) shows off his large bill, clearly designed for seed eating. The bird is only 4-1 /2 inches long, and is very pretty.
