SUMMARY:Advanced Birding Series: Monsoon Birding with Alex Patia
DESCRIPTION:Advanced Birding Series: Monsoon Birding with Alex Patia\nSunday July 27th, 6-9 am\n$35/member, $50/non-member.\nTrip Difficulty: Easy. Walking distance: around 1 mile. Trip Duration: 2.5 – 3 hrs. Elevation gain: none, but with chance of slight inclines/declines. Ground condition: groomed gravel trails. Drinking water and restrooms available at park’s entrance. Benches available at periodic intervals around the Wetlands.\nLate July is in monsoon season, our second spring here in Southeast Arizona! During this time of year some of our breeding birds will begin to nest again. It is also the beginning of fall migration, with some early migrants like shorebirds starting to pass though heading south. There is also movement from nearby breeding species as they\nbegin to finish nesting, called post-breeding dispersal, including species like Purple Martin. The combination of both breeding bird behavior and migration makes this a great time of year to visit Sweetwater Wetlands and see something unexpected. Limited to 12 participants. The Wetlands are located at 2511 W Sweetwater Drive.\nLeader: Alex Patia (apatia@tucsonbirds.org ( mailto:apatia@tucsonbirds.org ))\nHeader image: Tropical Kingbird by Jim Burns\n
