Rio Grande Nature Center

Brent and I spent 4 hours on Sunday along the Rio Grande, first at the Nature Center and then later in the day at the Alameda Open Space.

The highlights included a Great-Horned Owl on a nest, a couple of hundred Sandhill Cranes calling as they flew overhead and a couple of noisy, aggressive White-breasted Nuthatches defending nest holes from two birds we don't see in northern Arizona, Black-capped Chickadees and Eastern Bluebirds.
