During a 3-month stay in Arizona December to end of February, we visited the Gilbert Riparian Park and sited a lot of birds.
The most enjoyable part was having Spencer and Easton join us on one of our visits. I think I got Spencer excited about doing a "Big Year". He has the Merlin app and is collecting sightings.

I think Spencer and Easton are natural birders
These people were taking "birding" to a whole new level!
Our sighting of a "Cooper's Hawk" was one of the most exciting birds we saw when Spencer and Easton were visiting.
The Cooper's Hawk feeds mostly on other birds in flight and often stalks bird feeder's in search of prey.
