Let’s do a marathon morning birding local ponds! By mid-November, wintering waterfowl should have arrived and settled in, giving us a variety of ducks, grebes and other waterfowl, plus whatever shorebirds, songbirds and raptors visit the ponds. Start at Tempe Town Lake and work our way north through a variety of ponds along Scottsdale’s Greenbelt, including Eldorado and Chaparral Parks and McCormick Ranch. Recommended gas money donation to your driver: $5. Donations in my car will go to CEDO, the binational conservation/education/research institution in Rocky Point. Carpools and logistics decided a few days before the trip.
Restrictions: Must be fully vaccinated.
