Willcox Ponds: Fall Migration for Beginners with John Higgins

Registration for this trip is free. 

Come see the shorebirds, ducks, gulls, swallows and hawks headed south. Those new to birding or who are mobility challenged are especially invited, since we bird near our cars with scopes and bird charts as we drive the dirt road around the ponds. Be ready for sun, heat and wind. Bring water, snack lunch and carpool money. Leave from the front of the Walmart parking lot (NE corner) at Houghton and Old Vail Road by 8 a.m., back before 2 p.m. Seventy miles one way. Restrooms at Texas Canyon rest stop on the way and the Historic Train Depot in Willcox after birding. Limited to 20 participants.

Leader: John Higgins, jghiggins@cox.net, 520-609-2361
