Dear fellow flock of birders,

Before I forget it I want to wish you all a very happy Thanksgiving! It won't be our usual Thanksgiving when we gather with our family to share a fabulous meal but instead we will be staying home and not risking our health. We will celebrate with our family and relatives when it becomes safe to do so. I hope all of you will be safe and stay healthy too.

 

Monarchs Arriving!

Monarchs are slowly appearing at the coastal California overwintering sites and the nearby region as well as throughout the Arizona deserts this week. Weather conditions across their range vary widely by location. Some places are experiencing record high temperatures while others have chilly winter weather settling in.

Dear fellow flock of birders,

As the pandemic rages on I hope you are all well. Please take all the proper precautions to stay well. Your family and friends need you but also our birds need you to fight for them, their good health and even their continued existence.

So what have the birds in the Arb been doing this past week?

 

On the Home Stretch

Cold, snowy, wintery weather descended on many Western states this weekend as monarchs hurry to reach their overwintering destinations along the California coast and in Mexico. Monarch sightings were once again limited to the lower deserts of Arizona and California.
