I returned to Flagstaff for the start of the new year and having been at sea level for three months, started with easy walks at Picture Canyon and Fat Man's Loop. I added some expected year birds but got lucky with a calling Northern Pygmy Owl on Fat Man's Loop. More year birds were added from my back yard.
A new place had popped up on the list serve - Fulton Pond. This is the pond next to the fire station at the south end of Mormon Lake and I made two trips to get Stilt Sandpiper - a Coconino County bird for me - and Baird's Sandpiper on either side of September 1st.
