Gilbert Water Ranch

After a short stop at Rio Salado where we saw a Greater Roadrunner carrying nesting material, we spent a couple of hours at the Gilbert Water Ranch before heading back to Flagstaff.

At the Ranch we found the usual high numbers of water birds - waders (shorebirds), ducks and egrets. I added six new species for 2011 to end the day on 177 for the year.
