Flagstaff additions

On Saturday November 19th I decided to hit a couple of spots around Flagstaff in an effort to get closer to year end targets. I started the day on Buffalo Range Road where things began badly with a herd of cows all over Babbitt Tank removing the likelihood of longspurs. I drove down the road and soon found a Sagebrush Sparrow perched up, but had no further luck with new species on my morning drive.

At the end of the day I decided to head west of town to Garland Prairie hoping to find the Rough-legged Hawk that had been posted a few days earlier. I had no luck on the drive out past the village but found the bird perched atop a distant ponderosa on my way back.
