A brief visit to
Boyce Thompson
Arboretum while on a business trip yielded a few new lifers and some
pictures, though I wasn't as happy on the photographic side as I was for our
earlier trip this year.
I arrived around 06:30, grabbing a bite and coffee in Superior (about 3
miles past the arboretum). I had to bird the parking lot at first,
until I convinced the girls at the visitor centre to let me in early (around
7:30). The staff there were very nice and helpful. The weather
wasn't too hot, as it was relatively cloudy to start and stayed hazy until
10:00, when I left to return to Phoenix. According to one of the
interpreters, the timing wasn't great for bird numbers, as it is past
migration. |
