Madera Canyon is always a fun stop especially when the valley floor heats up. Good you looked up when you did. The Claret Cup are beautiful. They do love the rocks. Your turkey photos are great. A rafter...thanks for the lesson! I do love the sap dripping from the pine and the water dripping form the cardinal. Super shots. You really do need to get up to Mt. Lemmon. There are lots of fun places to explore and it is so much cooler.

My camera of choice for the past several years is my Nikon D 5500 and for birding I use a Tamron lens 150-600. It has an awesome zoom, but a little tricky to focus sometimes. We are hoping to explore more areas like Madera…can you believe we have never driven to Mt Lemmon? The dahlias are in pots (3 of them) by the patio. We don’t have a drip/irrigation system so we have not planted anything in the yard.

I love the parts of Arizona that are diverse--trees, water, wildlife--not just desert sand. Are those dahlias growing in pots or the ground? Your photography is beautiful--like the two before me I love the drinking cardinal!
