    Tijuana wildlife refuge?

    My folks are considering a trip to this area in mid July. I had other plans, and now I am not sure what I should do. When is a good month to visit the area? I may put it off until fall migration, but I am not sure when the peak time would be for this area. Thanks!

    Duck, Arizona USA

    At first I just thought this was a female American Wigeon, since they were hanging out together. But looking through my photos, I see several things are wrong with that - mostly the bill. Could this be a Gadwall? This was February near Tucson

    Last one (for now) from Arizona USA

    Thanks for all the help, it is much appreciated. I have this written off as an immature Robin, but now I wonder, possible American Pipit?

    I took these today at Boyce Thompson Arboretum outside of Superior, AZ in a (very bird-popular) Pistachio tree. Can someone confirm this is a Varied Thrush? I'm showing it rare to accidental for the region. Thanks!

    2 from Arizona, USA

    The guide swore #1 was a Common Ground Dove. I got home, looked at the pics, and thought Inca Dove, based on the tail and overall "scaly" feathering. Would love some more opinions, because I'm new to AZ and may be completely wrong. #2 (#3 is same bird) = Lucy's Warbler? Thanks #1 #2

    Oriole, central Arizona, USA

    I disagree with our guide about who this is. As it is probably a life bird for me, I desperately need a third opinion. Thank you!

    General question about Merlins vs Peregrines

    I identified a bird today to a coworker as probably a Merlin, and was promptly laughed at by another who said that "Merlin" was old-school terminology for Peregrine Falcons - that they were the same bird. This didn't sound right to me but as this person could be described as NEVER WRONG (at...

    Great Blue Heron sunning?
