Dateline: 5 August 2023

While waiting for more Dunlin content from Presque Isle State Park, it’s back to Marana, AZ in August for BirdingPI.com’s final epic installment (for now) of birds @ El Rio Preserve.

Lucky to have plenty of time with this beautiful Greater Roadrunner in a tree – such an amazing/cool bird!






Not quite sure, but some sort of juvenile or female flycatcher probably:



















The moonset with saguaro and vulture is really spectacular!
And the detail shots of the roadrunner are excellent. Really love the ‘running on air’ photo. Great wing spread!
