Mt Ord is one of Maricopa County’s highest elevation hotspots, and we will visit near the peak of spring migration.  High chapparal slopes and Ponderosa pine forests host species such as Acorn and Hairy woodpeckers, Grace's and Virginia warblers, Scott's Orioles and Gray vireos.  We will meet at Denny’s in Fountain Hills to arrange carpooling.  Bring lunch.
