SUMMARY:Desert Purple Martin Evening Roost Viewing with Jennie MacFarland
DESCRIPTION:\nDesert Purple Martin Evening Roost Viewing\nThe Desert Purple Martins are getting ready to migrate south and many of them gather in Sahuarita nightly to communally roost in the pecan groves. Tucson Bird Alliance has found a location that a large number have been using lately south of Sahuarita Road and you can join us to watch the evening spectacle of the birds feeding over the pecans and coalescing into a tight group before dropping into the trees to spend the night.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLogistics: We will be meeting at 6:00pm at the Fry’s Grocery Store parking area in Sahuarita  (north east part of the parking area – map here) for optional carpooling to the site. Just a few minutes away we will park on a very wide shoulder off of Nogales Highway to watch for the gathering of Desert Purple Martins. They usually go down before 7:30pm. We don’t know exactly what will happen each evening or if the weather will interfere, but each evening is bound to be an adventure.\n\nLeader: Jennie MacFarland\n\nImages: Purple Martins by Richard Fray\n
