Overview

Arizona is considered by many to have the best birding in the country, owing in large part to its over 550 permanent residents, breeders, and annual migrants. From the high-altitude Canadian Zone to the lowland desert scrub to the richly vegetated canyons, educators, learners, naturalists, and birders can explore a rich avifauna that includes over 15 species of hummingbirds and tropical specialties like trogons. This beautifully illustrated collection includes an ecoregion map featuring over 20 bird-finding hotspots. Laminated for durability, this folding pocket guide is the ideal companion for those who want to forge a deeper relationship with the avifauna of Arizona. Made in the USA.
