February Challenge!

Results for January Challenge: 4 observations at three Parks (Dec-Jan)

February Challenge ! Lets see if we cant document some Black Throated Sparrows this month!

Did you know that Arizona’s diversity of birds remains high during the
winter months? This month, we’ll learn all about the Black-throated
Sparrow. While this breed tends to stay in Arizona year-round, they
can migrate short distances. Here are three more things you may not
know about the Black-throated Sparrow:

  1. They are primary ground foragers and tend to forage near or
    under shrubs and cacti

  2. They mainly eat insects during the breeding season, which is
    roughly early March to early October.

  3. The females will make cup-shaped nests approximately one foot
    above the ground on the north or east side of cacti and shrubs
