Last Lifer

I was recently in Arizona on business and managed to spend 2+ days birding. Added the following birds to my life list:

Black-capped Gnatcatcher
Five-striped Sparrow
LeConte's Thrasher.

I also added an ABA bird, that I had previously seen in Panama, the Rufous-capped Warbler.

A great trip!

A Snowbunting at Tichfield Haven. Strictly speaking it might not have been a lifer; I have a very vague memory I might I seen them as a child but not with enough confidence to tick it.
