Varied Bunting ~ This beautiful bunting was photographed in Madera Canyon, Arizona. He was one of my target birds for the Proctor Road area, and it was the first time I have managed to photograph this flitty little bird.
~ I hiked up the Carrie Nation Mine Trail in Madera Canyon, in search of the Elegant Trogons. I did manage to see two of them, but did not get photographs. Along the trail I did find this vireo on her nest, and I was happy to come back with several shots.
This southeast Arizona specialty bird was photographed in Rustler Park in the Chiricahua Mountains, Arizona.
