Phoenix Trip
On Saturday September 1st we headed down to Phoenix and stopped at the Glendale Recharge Ponds. The 104 degree (40C) heat and no shade meant that this was brutal birding but the recharge ponds were full of shorebirds - Wilson's Phalarope, Long-billed Dowitcher, Lesser Yellowlegs, Killdeer, Least, Baird's and Solitary Sandpipers, American Avocets, Black-necked Stilt. A Wilson's Snipe was in the area to the left heading to the ponds themselves.
On Sunday September 2nd we spent a couple of hours at the Gilbert Water Ranch where we saw about 30 species of birds with the highlight being a Brown Pelican.
